360 for development and performance
What are 360° feedback surveys?
360° degree feedback surveys are used to help organisations review the effectiveness of their leaders and managers and to provide them with insightful developmental feedback. They are also used to assess employees against important strategic company objectives and values such as Health and safety commitment, Managerial and leadership styles, Working Practices… and get access to the bigger picture.
What are the benefits of a 360° feedback?
A well run 360° Feedback Survey can produce enormous benefits both for the individuals taking part and for the company which employs them. The major benefits of 360° Feedback, compared with other forms of assessment and appraisal, are very clear:
- It can be clearly linked to the competencies, behaviours and values required for a job
- It provides qualitative as well as quantitative feedback, such as comparative data on a departmental basis
- It provides a sound basis for development planning
- It involves people with different perspectives in different roles and at different levels
- It generates commitment to development
- The process is seen to be much fairer and transparent if handled properly
- It can help start or maintain a process of cultural change
- Satisfied with their jobs
- Valued by the organisation
- Motivated
- Engaged
- Loyal to the company
How do you implement a 360° Feedback
The 360° Feedback process is both sensitive and complex. A 360° can access very personal information relating to one’s performance. If handled incorrectly people can feel isolated and de-motivated. The introduction and implementation of a 360° must, therefore, be very carefully planned and carried out.
