360 Degree Feedback: 5 Common Mistakes Made
Have you ever wondered, “How do I effectively use 360 degree feedback to reveal predictors of success and make corrective decisions about the people working at my company?”
John Rice recently posted a blog, “360 Degree Feedback or face-to-face conversation?” in which he says it’s not an either/or, but a both.
“To all intents and purposes, we would agree that an organizational culture which can support open, honest, face-to-face feedback which is given well and received well, is a desirable state–leadership should indeed encourage and lead by example in fostering such an environment.” John continues with, “However, 360 degree feedback still has a place as a formal, structured way of gathering feedback which should complement such conversation; it isn’t ‘either/or.’”
