360 Degree Feedback Surveys
Build self-awareness through targeted, relevant & specific feedback
If you are considering running a 360 Degree Feedback Survey within your organisation, we can help.
We have extensive experience in designing, implementing and providing feedback for 360 Degree Feedback Surveys within a broad range of public and private sector organisations, and at various levels (including executive and senior leadership level).
Consequently, we have an in-depth understanding of those factors that can significantly impact the likely success (or otherwise) of a 360 Degree Survey project. These include issues relating to confidentiality, communication, and the extent to which an organisation, team or individual is ‘ready’ for a 360 Feedback process.
Indeed, our experience suggests that many organisations underestimate the significant way in which a 360 Degree Feedback process can negatively impact employee motivation and engagement – if not handled well, that is.
Why use an external provider?
There are several benefits of partnering with an objective, external provider - especially someone with robust qualifications and experience in organisational psychology.
Managing confidentiality
We can help you to explore different approaches to confidentiality, and ensure that appropriate levels of confidentiality are set up and maintained throughout the process.
Creating a sense of safety
We can support you in creating a safe environment in which employees can provide one another with a mix of quantitative and qualitative feedback for growth & development.
Creating a ‘feedback culture’
Our expertise in capability building & behavioural change can help with embedding ongoing feedback loops & developing a feedback ‘culture’ within your team / organisation.
Maintaining objectivity & avoiding bias
We are trained to take an unbiased, objective view of capability & potential, which helps to ensure a process that is robust, holistic, and supported by actionable insights.
In choosing to work with us, you will certainly receive all of those benefits. In fact, our Consultants are all formally registered and qualified Business Psychologists with 15+ years of experience in talent management, assessment and leadership development.
Furthermore, we can also provide advice on integrating 360 Degree Feedback Surveys with other sources of information and data, assisting those organisations who wish to use 360 Feedback as part of a broader leadership assessment and development program.
360 Degree Survey Options
We have a couple of options available for 360 Degree Surveys, allowing us to flex our approach to suit your needs.
For ‘standard’ online (only) 360 surveys, we typically partner with Profiling Online to build a customised survey that includes the relevant competencies.
We also offer ‘high touch’ 360 Survey options where we conduct one-on-one, confidential interviews with feedback providers to gather deeper insights into areas of strength and opportunity. This approach is particularly relevant for senior and ‘high stakes’ roles.
Finally, we strongly encourage the use of additional tools to provide a more holistic view of an individual’s relative strengths and development needs. Examples of tools we regularly use include the Saville WAVE Personality Questionnaire and the VIA Character Strengths Survey.
If you would like a confidential chat about your 360 Degree Survey project needs, feel free to get in touch.
