Benefits

360 degree feedback assessments drive invaluable insight into a broad array of employee performance metrics. Input is gathered from several different points-of-view, so an employee can better understand various perceptions on his or her performance at the workplace.

360 degree feedback provides a wealth of benefits, most notably:

• Align performance and business strategy. Assessments can help organizations better align employee competencies with their overall mission and vision. Assessments also aid in focusing attitudes toward defined milestones and results. This, in turn, ensures companies can successfully reach their goals.
• Boost assessment transparency. 360 Degree Feedback notably improves survey validity and increases staff acceptance of the evaluation process and its results. Survey results deliver helpful and complementary points-of-view, with supervisors able to base feedback on bottom-line responses and technical abilities, while direct reports enjoy knowing their supervisors are fully commitment to their professional development. Peers, too, tend to concentrate more on collaboration, technical proficiency and camaraderie.
• Reward positive performance. Enterprise-wide behavior and competence standardization using 360 Degree Feedback ensures that all employees are held to the same standards while keeping everyone focused on professional skills development.
• Recognize and foster individual talents. 360 Degree Feedback offers a means for greater transparency, helping organizations identify employees with exceptional talents and desired skills needed to support specific company roles. Furthermore, results make it easier to communicate the need for professional development and training programs that can enhance employee strengths.
• Expand Feedback Reach: 360 Degree Feedback arrives from numerous stakeholders, not just an employee's manager. As such, this type of assessment delivers a more well-rounded portrait of personal performance through the eyes of others.
• Gather fair and impartial responses: 360 Degree Feedback, executed confidentially, ensures participants feel comfortable offering impartial and truthful responses. When only a few respondents are involved, results may be combined to cloak each individual's identity.
• Improve self-awareness: Feedback results highlight an individual's strengths and weaknesses within any given range of core competencies. So participants acquire a much stronger and more accurate understanding of their personal performance than they could using an alternative assessment model.
• Encourage personal development: Using 360 Degree Feedback results, individuals better understand their weaknesses and are able to create a short and long-term plan for personal development.
• Reduce employee turnover: Organizations can create an environment that promotes personal development and optimal career satisfaction through the regular implementation of 360 Degree Feedback. In return, companies can effectively reduce employee turnover and the associated recruitment cost.
