"In practice, your rating in this system is not a rating of your work performance, it is a rating of your manager’s storytelling in these calibration meetings." -- Kent Beck will get you to think about how you run Feedback (or Performance) Reviews today and the incentive structure people have to do the right things. Incentives design is a tough problem, so you shouldn't seek easy or quick solutions.
