Hi, We are getting set to formalize our review process. How do we know if 360-degree performance appraisals are right for our company? Deepali

Hi Deepali
As per my understnading goes 360 Degree Feedback involves feedback from Peers, Subordinates, Superiors and Self..The process is time consuming and expensive as well..
Therefore the above Feedback is used for people at the Managerial Cader and above since the number of people in these designations are few and a proper understanding is required...
Pls find an attachment which would contain all the information related to 360 Degree Feedback.
For more info on the same you can visit www.businessballs.com

Hi Deepali,
At the outset the Process would be
1. Derive the competencies
2. Identify the Appraisee's
3. Map them into different Bands (if necessary)
4. Define the Respondent types (Self / Peer / Manager / Subordinate / Customer )
5. Identify the Appraisers for each of Appraisee (min of 3 for Peer / Subordinate / Customer)
6. Conduct the survey i.e., feedback
and then ofcourse the reports section...
Do lemme know if you conducting the same would help you out with the details...

Hello Deepali:
A company is ready for a 360 process when...
1. employees are willing to give honest feedback.
2. managers are willing to accept the honest feedback.
3. managers are committed to changing their behaviors.
Number 3 is very difficult if managers are left on their own to change their behaviors.

Hi Deepali
A 360 process that be extremely helpful in a feedback situation as you have the opportunity to get information from all involved. But as also stated in some other reply it is time consuming, expensive and potentially harmful. Thats why you really really need to look much deeper into this before you implement it.
I would recommend that you start by studying yourself what is required and then have a realistic look around you and see if this would be possible in your organization. If you believe it is it is very important that you also spend some time on informing and training people in what they would need to do in a 360 feedback. This will include all levels of your organization. Giving and receiving critic is one of the most difficult things and a 360 feedback put this to the test.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
I wanna know is this doesn't give a negative impact on the employees about the management.
In other words i can say, employee get a platform to say what they want to but this can give a negative rise also.

Hi
If I get you right you are concerned about, that the employees will use the 360 feedback to give a voice to a negative rise.
Again I would focus on teaching all parts of the company what the 360 degree feedback is all about: It is a way to give constructive criticism (positive and negative). It is a tool for us all to use to get better at what we are doing and how we are doing it.
Of cause it can create a negative rise IF employees (or management) does not use it correct as it can easily become a blame game or nothing at all (a lot of people are also shy of conflicts). That is why it is so difficult to handle (in a correct way). You can easily implement 360 on paper but getting it to work is another things as the whole company will have to be ready and "mature" for it.
But by the way, IF employees use the 360 feedback to give a negative impact - then it properly was there anyway :-)

Hello Deepali:
>I wanna know is this doesn't give a negative impact on the employees about the management.<
Do you mean if employees will be punished?
>In other words i can say, employee get a platform to say what they want to but this can give a negative rise also.<
The 360 we use has 70 questions with optional comments.
The manager should not know what a rater has said about them, responses by direct reports and peers must be anonymous.

Hi! If you have a 180 process already in place 360 will become easy to handle. You can even compare the data. Regards, Jennifer Isaac
