Feedback is a rare commodity in day-to-day organizational life, but it is a
key to ongoing effectiveness. One popular vehicle for getting feedback from
one’s boss, peers, subordinates, and customers is the multiple-perspective or
360-degree-feedback instrument. Whether part of a management-development course
or used alone, this kind of instrument can enhance self-awareness by
highlighting a leader’s strengths and areas in need of further development.
Selecting the right multirater instrument from among the dozens that are
available can be difficult. This new edition of Feedback to Managers, the
fourth, updates and expands the popular 1998 edition. It guides the selection
process with an in-depth analysis of 32 publicly available instruments. Each of
the instrument reports includes descriptive information, a look at the research
behind the instrument, and descriptions of support
materials.
