At Bain, all partners, even those at the most senior level, receive rigorous annual performance reviews on multiple dimensions: client contributions, people development, knowledge contribution, reputation building, and "one-firm" behavior.

хотелось бы уточнить:

client contributions здесь - привлечение новых клиентов или прибыль от клиентов?

"one-firm" behavior - что-то типа "следование стратегии «единой фирмы»?
и
knowledge contribution - пока не придумала вариант.. (разработка новых идей?.. повышение уровня компетентности фирмы?..)

вот еще два термина: client impact и firm impact

...partner reviews (одной фирмы) evaluate client impact and firm impact rather than how much the partner is producing.

воздействие на клиентов и ..?

We collect mountains of data ranging from upward feedback to peer reviews to client performance.

через пару абзацев - пассаж о важности "Soft" data:

As with compensation, systems that collect only "hard" data can easily miss important aspects of the longer-term value someone is creating for the firm. "Soft" data are significant.
Goldman Sachs looks at qualitative criteria such as judgment, ability to develop relations with clients, and technical skills, along with mentoring, coaching, recruiting, and leadership. McKinsey's partner reviews evaluate client impact and firm impact rather than how much the partner is producing. At Grey Advertising, evaluations cover whether professionals are "hopeful, inspirational, and helpful to their colleagues," whether they are energetic, and whether they demonstrate "over-and-above-what's-demanded performance, day in and day out."

Building on Strength

Fully developed performance reviews require a lot of time, both from the person who's being reviewed and from the reviewers. The return on this investment is knowledge and insight that can be used to take the value created through performance evaluation to the next level— customizing senior stars' roles and responsibilities throughout their ca¬reers. Why customize? The whole point of a performance management system is to help stars manage their careers so that they create the greatest possible value for the firm and for themselves. The way that happens is to help them build on strength.
Every individual has a set of relative strengths and weaknesses. Customization entails nurturing and building on strengths rather than trying to eliminate weaknesses (which is usually impossible). Great firms and outstanding professionals recognize this fact and work with it.

ну, давайте звать :))

They don't force superlative producers to become indifferent man¬agers. Nor do they penalize highly regarded mentors for devoting time to young stars. On the contrary, they encourage their senior people so that over time their career paths and the performance criteria to which they're held become more individualized. The rewards of this ap¬proach are not only more satisfied and productive senior stars but also a firm with a more diversified and balanced portfolio of skills.
Customization requires emphasizing some skills and neglecting others. Assignments that divide a partner's time equally between client and firm responsibilities will nurture his management skills. Pointing a partner toward marketing and client development will fos¬ter her skills as a rainmaker. Encouraging a partner to develop intel¬lectual property may produce a guru. The tradeoffs inherent in now professionals allocate their time are inescapable. Taken as a whole, those tradeoffs will determine the likelihood of each individual's success in the partnership, as well as the success of the partnership overall. That is why in professional firms, the deployment of talent is inherently strategic.

вар:

индивидуальный подбор обязанностей на протяжение всей карьеры. Для чего нужен такой подход?

результаты работы с клиентами (как-то: привлечение новых и удержание старых, удовлетворенность клиентов и т.п.)

and firm impact -- вклад в развитие бизнеса и фирмы вцелом

теперь бы еще с деплойментом разобраться.... О:-)

client impact and firm impact - у лисули вроде складно.
(но можно рассмотреть нюансы/уточнения... напр, firm impact - любое внутри-фирменное влияние; как-то: воздействие на атмосферу внутри конторы, отношения с коллегами, воспитание молодняка, и т.п.)
