Managers differ enormously in how they use a five-point scale — some rate almost everybody a four, some have never given one. And when each manager rates only their own team, a harsh manager and a weaker team produce exactly the same numbers. They are perfectly confounded, and no averaging, weighting or forcing separates them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCalibrForge estimates each rater’s leniency from the people who were assessed by more than one rater, shrinks every estimate toward zero in proportion to how little evidence stands behind it, publishes each one with its confidence interval, and \u003cem\u003erefuses outright\u003c\/em\u003e when the overlap is not there.
