360 Degree Feedback assessments provide feedback from multiple perspectives around the employee: Self, Supervisor, Peers, Direct Reports, Others. These assessments provide a more comprehensive assessment than just a manager's assessment. 360 Degree Assessments can be part of employee development programs, leadership training programs, and performance appraisal.

Need to Design a 360 Feedback Survey?
Designing a 360 Feedback Survey is easy with our on-line assessment tool to create an assessment that collects responses from different perspectives including self, supervisor (manager), peers (colleagues), direct reports (subordinates), and others. The information is combined into a report showing strengths and weaknesses of the individual being assessed.
One of the first steps in designing a 360 Feedback system is the specification of what competencies should be included on the questionnaire. We have organized our competencies into different skill sets. You can focus your questionnaire on one, or more, skill sets by selecting from the competencies below.

Several Tools For Creating Questionnaires
This page is just one of several on-line tools available for creating on-line questionnaires / surveys. With this page, you can select the competencies you wish to include on the questionnaire and the computer will select items for those competencies. Just check the boxes next to the competencies you wish to include. Then press the Show Questionnaire button.
Competencies
The competencies are grouped into different skill sets. You can focus your questionnaire on one or more skill sets. Or create a broad questionnaire by selecting competencies from each of the skill sets.
Try to limit your questionnaire to no more than 15 competencies. Each competency should include 5 to 10 behavioral statements. If you select a large number of competencies and multiple items for each, you could end up with a questionnaire that contains hundreds of statements to be evaluated.
Select the Competencies you wish to include on the survey. If you aren't sure how to start, try selecting two of the most relevant competencies from each colored box. This will give you 10 competencies to start with. After you have selected your competencies, press the "Show Questionnaire" button below.
