The 360º feedback tool is one of the most universally used feedback surveys. It is a person-centric, multi-rater survey that gathers anonymous feedback about a person from people who work closely with them. Typically, the survey contains questions based on a leadership or competency framework. The person nominates individuals and asks for their feedback on how well (s)he demonstrates the behaviors that exemplify the competency questions. Traditionally, a person requests feedback from her/his line manager, peers, direct reports (in the case of managers), other colleagues, and maybe even clients or other key stakeholders.
Although organizations and individuals can use 360º surveys in different ways, research shows 360º surveys are most useful and reliable when the person (the subject of the feedback) controls access to the feedback and it is used for the person’s development purposes, not for performance management.
