What is 360 Degree Feedback?

360 Degree Feedback has been in use since 1940 and has evolved to become a very common management tool. It is a tool that provides information from multiple sources, such as your supervisor, peers, direct reports, and others.

Today, most 360 feedback surveys are conducted online and used by employees to rate their managers; providing them with numeric and qualitative feedback. As companies rely more heavily on teamwork, cooperation, and communication to improve productivity, 360 degree feedback is a very useful tool.
