Summary
- Endeavor staff should critically evaluate panelist performance after each LSP.
- This enables us to maintain high standards for future LSPs, as we can invite back high-performing panelists and work on up-leveling lower-performing panelists.
- The Global Selection Team uses a defined “panelist ranking system” at the ISP level; feel free to borrow some or all of this methodology for use at the LSP level!
- Not all mentors are suited for panelist roles; it's important to place their skills where they add the most value.
- Most panelists fall in the middle tier (”average panelists”) → we continue to invite these panelists back as the presence of just 1-2 “exceptional panelists” raises the overall quality of the panel significantly.

📝 Why evaluate panelists?
<aside>
⭐ Ranking panelists informs future panel curation - by inviting back the most additive panelists, we can maintain a high standard for ISP and LSP panels.⭐
The ranking system encourages a deeper evaluation of panelists and mentors. Some mentors may not be well-suited to panelist roles, but they can still be valuable 1:1 mentors within their specific areas of expertise. These distinctions are key to maximizing their contribution to the network.

💯 ISP panelist ranking criteria
Methodology
The Endeavor Global Selection team has developed a ranking system to evaluate ISP panelist performance (see full criteria in the document below). After each ISP, the Endeavor team ranks panelists to assess their value add as panelists, the potential need for additional coaching or Endeavorization, and whether or not to bring them back to another ISP. Rankings are assigned on a case-by-case basis and will vary by ISP.
This framework can be adapted for the LSP level and tailored to suit the unique needs of each local office. While it is not required to use Global’s methodology to rank panelists, it is important that all offices are evaluate and track the quality of their panelists in some way.

✍️ How to use panelist rankings
- By standardizing panelist assessments, we can more effectively curate strong panels. One Tier 1 panelist (i.e., “anchor panelist”) can elevate the entire group and significantly influence decisions. Recognizing your "anchor panelists" is a critical tool for driving successful outcomes at LSPs.
- However, this is not to say all panelists must be Tier 1. Tier 2 panelists play an important role in panel diversification, communication, panel synergy, and more.
- Tier 3 panelists are not additive and may be suited to better roles in the Endeavor network. 3B panelists are removed from the panelist pool.
