360-degree feedback can be hugely powerful and insightful for those organisations ready to embrace this approach. A successful process heavily depends on the maturity and culture of your organisation. If you want to truly gauge and appraise an employee’s performance, then it is important to get a wider and balanced perspective.

This can be achieved through a wider view of their performance, by taking input from a range of people they interact with, for example:

Themselves

A personal view

Subordinates

People who report to them

Peers

People who work with them

Manager

The person they report into

Customer

Someone internal or external

360-degree feedback is used predominantly for senior roles in large organisations, but can also be adopted more widely where it adds value.

Engaging constructive wider feedback provides a more balanced and broader perspective. This more accurately and fairly assesses a person’s performance, and will reduce the influence of any subjective inputs such as favouritism and prejudices, etc.

We have gathered expertise from a diverse range of clients plus examples of best practice. We will share this with you to help shape the optimum performance management process. Our focus is ensuring the entire solution is fit-for-purpose and delivers value and impact.

360-degree feedback forms part of the overall SkillStation performance review module.

Where required, Performance Appraisals and even specific questions can be set as a 360-degree review. SkillStation allows you to choose the most effective process and assessment approach for each section of your Performance Appraisal e.g. Leadership.
