Employees can gain valuable insight into how their behavior is perceived by different groups across the organization. Our software can automatically recommend personalized development options for each competency included in the report.  The software creates a detailed individual development plan with a list of achievable learning outcomes to improve skills. Employees and managers have access to this plan, along with assigned coaches or mentors.

360 Degree Feedback Defined

360 Degree Feedback is a process that helps employees solicit confidential feedback from a variety of people who work in close collaboration with them. In a 360 Degree Feedback review, an employee completes a self-assessment and input is solicited from an employee’s manager, peers, and direct reports. Information can also be gathered from customers and suppliers.
