Importance of Feedback
A 360º Feedback Assessment gathers information from several people
about an individual's effectiveness. This gives a person the unique
opportunity to see themselves through the eyes of others. A 360º
will identify areas in which a person is performing above, at or below
the standards of his/her boss, self, peers, and customers (if applicable).
360º Feedback Assessments are powerful tools for helping individuals
improve, grow and develop their soft (interpersonal) skills. The development
of effective soft skills begins with the awareness of ineffective soft
skills.
A 360º Feedback Assessment shows an individual how others view
their performance, versus what it should be. The understanding of
others' perception will increase an individual's drive for success, when
he/she is given the information in a constructive manner such as a 360º
Feedback Assessment.
For example, performance appraisals can be administered using a 360º
Feedback Assessment. This allows employees to see the reasoning behind
any decision made about their performance and can develop an action plan
to improve. In addition, 360º's are an essential component for
continued learning and success.
Event vs. Process
Previous 360º Feedback Assessments have been missing the necessary
follow-up strategies to make them effective. Organizations have been
using 360º's as one-day training events without follow up. A 360º
is intended to be used as a starting point for a developmental process.
The "Discovery 360º Feedback" provides follow-up strategies
to ensure one's success. All 360º Feedback Assessment results
should be facilitated in a way that leads to a complete process for improvement.
When people look at a 360º as a starting point to an improvement
process, they feel more secure with the information given.
