# Introduction to 360 feedback

360 feedback is a multi-rater review process of sharing and receiving feedback across all levels of the organization. The comprehensive feedback mechanism allows employees to receive structured feedback anonymously from individuals, including managers, direct reports, peers, and anyone in the organization. You can also nominate reviewers from outside the organization by adding them as external respondents.

The 360 feedback allows you to identify the development gaps by providing a comprehensive vision. Receiving multiple inputs from various disciplines offers more self-awareness about workplace behavior and relationships. The anonymous feedback drives engagement with honesty and accuracy, improving employee performance and overall organizational productivity.

### **Why use 360 feedback**

360 feedback helps organizations:

- Gain balanced feedback from multiple perspectives.
- Improve self-awareness among employees and managers.
- Identify leadership and collaboration strengths.
- Encourage a culture of continuous feedback and accountability.
- Reduce bias that can occur in manager-only evaluations.
- Understand how employees work across teams and relationships.

### **What you can do with 360 feedback**

360 Feedback helps organizations collect performance feedback from multiple perspectives, including managers, peers, direct reports, customers, and self-evaluations. It provides a comprehensive view of employee performance and supports informed development decisions.

With 360 Feedback, you can:

- **Collect multi-rater feedback** from managers, peers, direct reports, custom relationships, external respondents, and self-evaluations.
- **Gain a balanced view of performance** by comparing feedback from multiple respondent groups instead of relying on a single reviewer.
- **Identify strengths and development areas** by comparing self-assessments with feedback from other respondents.
- **Encourage honest feedback** by using anonymous responses and minimum respondent thresholds where applicable.
- **Evaluate competencies and behaviors** using role-based or competency-based questionnaires.
- **Automate the review process** by managing respondent nominations, sending reminders, and tracking review progress.

- **Generate consolidated reports** that summarize feedback and provide actionable insights for employees and managers.
- **Support employee development** by using 360 Feedback insights for coaching, leadership development, performance discussions, and succession planning.
