Term2.png 360 DEGREE FEEDBACK
Feedback provided by subordinates, peers, and supervisors, including also a self-assessment and, sometimes, feedback from customers and suppliers. 360 degree feedback is also known as "multi-rater feedback," "multisource feedback," or "multisource assessment", since it comes from all the people working with the employee. "360" is related to the 360 degrees in a circle: the person to be evaluated stays figuratively in the center of it. The person receiving the feedback often uses the results from 360 degree feedback to plan his/her training and development. Some organizations also make administrative decisions, such as pay or promotion, starting from this kind of feedback. [1]
