The sole purpose of D&S is to ensure that Hipos rather than the most qualified candidate is selected for the best roles. Ranking follows role meaning that your ranking is highly dependent on your role being visible and valued by management. The cycle perpetuates.

Does that change often? What does one need to do in order to be in that pool?

A former high-flying teammate recently moved into a commercial leader role for Proxxima. I'm not very familiar with the product or its business case - from what I can tell it's meant to be a polymeric replacement for rebar?
What kind of impact can a HiPo make in that business?

DW in the first Your Growth Powers our Future” video: “I am very fortunate to have the career that I had with the company. I think early on, I was lucky in that senior managers took an interest in me and made sure and made sure that I got some of these experiences. “ (referring to a diverse set of roles across the org).
So admitting his career was built on luck and being deemed a hipo by senior management early on. If you’re lucky enough to be a chosen one early on, you’ve got it made. Perhaps you started with the right manager over you that was also a high flyer. Or you made a connection with someone by happenstance and they took a liking to you. Guess that’s life.

Just a general thread, tell us what you think.

What is the definition of a HiPo (high potential)at Halliburton?

Is it based on a particular level?
