The significance and influence of 360 degree feedback



Feedback is an essential thing in order to assess individual’s working potential. It is not always the possibility that feedback will be positive; rather sometimes it can be negative too. One must be prepared to face the dual aspects of the both. If the feedback for an individual or a team is not taken from the superiors then, it cannot be evaluated that a team or a person has developed in their work or not. Basically, 360 degree feedback helps in evaluating the performance graph. It is not simply enough to work with an organization; rather one must have the familiarity that he is performing the work with efficiency or whether he requires some changes in the working pattern that he follows.

It is quite obvious, that people are not the best judges in judging themselves; even if they do not want they will be quite biased at some point or the other. Thus, it becomes necessity to get feedback from the superiors.

One must be sure that the process is undertaken with the solitary objective of evaluating the performances of the work force:
Being a superior, if you are asked to give feedback for your subordinate then, keeping aside your emotional aspects, you must judge the person in an unbiased manner. It might be a probability that the feedback you will be giving is not good or average, but discarding the temporary loss, indirectly you will be helping the person in letting him know the weakness. The jotted out bad points will ultimately provoke a person to put their best efforts and work in m ore energetic manner.
