    you can save your selection index of first grid into a local variable along with entire row value. and after that use the new local variable to show it into the next grid.

    a!localVariables(
  local!selection,
  local!selectedEmployees,
  {
    a!richTextDisplayField(
      label: "",
      labelPosition: "COLLAPSED",
      value: {
        a!richTextHeader(
          text: "Performance Review Portal"
        )
      }
    ),
    {a!gridField(
      label: "Employee Directory",
      data: todatasubset(
        {
          a!map(id: 11, name: "Elizabeth Ward",  dept: "Engineering",     role: "Senior Engineer",       team: "Front-End Components",     pto: 15, startDate: today()-500),
