Who usually participates in the 360 assessment process?
The 360 assessment process is most effective when an individual receives feedback from a diverse group of individuals (6-10) who directly observe an individual’s work (e.g., manager, dotted-line manager, internal and/or external customers, colleagues, and direct reports as well as themselves). While a larger and more diverse data pool provides more valid assessment, the desire for rich data needs to be balanced against the time and resources required to complete the tool.
