360 Degree Feedback Surveys

What is 360 degree Feedback?

360 Degree Feedback Surveys are a Human Resources tool used by organisations to evaluate an employee’s job-related performance and development needs. Feedback is gathered from an employee’s co-workers, managers, direct reports, internal customers and others using a questionnaire covering areas such as skills, abilities and job performance. The data gathered is then compiled into a report showing the employee’s strengths and development needs according to the people he/she works closest with. 360 Degree Feedback Surveys can be used at all levels, from Executive to Team Member; and with all functions; and be administered for either individuals or groups of any size. They can be successfully used as a stand-alone employee intervention or as an integral part of another human resource system such as performance management.

Why 360^o?

Because feedback is gathered from multiple sources, employees find the results more compelling than a traditional evaluation from a single manager’s perspective; and as the questionnaires are confidential, more honest and open feedback is generated. As a result the employee benefits from better self-awareness of their own strengths and development needs. The organisation benefits from improved performance, clear focus as to individual and group development needs and a more cost effective use of development resources.

Case Study

An insurance company wanted to implement a 360 degree Survey for its 60 managers and supervisors; an initiative aimed at giving each a personal development plan linked to the organisation’s newly-developed core values. IntegrateHR designed the 360 degree questionnaire and ran launch sessions for the project. The participants and their respondents then used Integrate360 to complete questionnaires. IntegrateHR reported summary data back to the company and ran group feedback sessions where each participant was presented with their individual report and tools to commence their personal development planning.
