Abstract

A star performer in an organization is a person that exceeds general expectations of performance and becomes a role model in the organization. It is vital for the success of organization that the attributes of the star performer should be clearly known so that they could be consciously nurtured. These attributes change with the business trends. With the dawn of the Knowledge Age, a paradigm shift has taken place in the orientation of the organization, the employee and the Human Resources department of the organization. Old competencies have ceased to produce new required results and reidentification of a new set of attributes has become inevitable. This research highlights the sought-after performance attributes across a wide section of industry. The study concludes that the star performer's attributes have changed, talent-centricity has become the need of time and the role of HR department is evolving from the custodian of records to being the catalyst for results and change.
