360 Degree Assessment

360-degree assessment is a performance management tool intended for employees to get multisource feedback about work performance and improvement areas. In a 360-degree evaluation, the person being reviewed receives feedback from people with whom he/she works. These reviews may come from peers, subordinates, direct reports, teammates, and even external parties, such as vendors and clients, called raters in the process.

A 360 evaluation lists an employee’s all KRAs and competencies on which raters rate him/her. A 360-degree evaluation chart out a detailed competency summary and a personal development plan along with actionable insights to help an employee determine his/her strengths and professional development gaps. 360 feedback assessments offer a holistic view of an employee by collating opinions from multiple perspectives.
