360° Feedback: how it works

360 Insight can be fully customised to your own competency models, brand guidelines and other requirements, or alternatively you can use our standard 360° feedback framework, which has been designed to test the core issues surrounding effective leadership.

There are a number of stages to a 360° feedback project – each one easy to understand and quick to use:

• Self assessment – 360º feedback begins with an individual’s self-appraisal
• Inviting others to appraise – Once their self-assessment is complete, individuals invite their peers or superiors to submit their thoughts
• Monitoring progress – While waiting for peers to submit their assessments, each individual running their own 360º project can monitor who has and hasn’t submitted – and send reminder emails where necessary
• Feedback generation – Once peers’ submissions have been received, the individual being assessed can download their reports
• Targeted development – Once the reports are in, action planning can begin. Often, our clients partner 360º reporting with a verbal feedback session, to help their people identify areas for improvement and ensure strengths are built upon
