The staff people should also know the procedure. Let them know what would be the expected results. Tell them about administration details, how survey will be taken and other details. You should state who will be analyzing the results. It is essential to communicate that all of the responses would be kept confidential so that they will give candid and honest feedback. Mostly the results of 360 degree feedback are viewed by the employee who is being rated. There are some companies where results are given to the supervisors. Make sure to communicate all these details at the right time.

The surveys would not be of any use if the company does not take a desirable action for the required improvement. The employees are also liable to bring improvement in them. For that let participants know that you expect them to show progress. The participants can create plans for the development on the basis of results. To further ensure the progress make sure to again conduct 360 degree feedback within one year. It will be useful to know how successful these development plans have been for the employees and for the whole firm. By following all these steps you will be able to let the staff understand about the significance of using these methods for their personal growth and the company as well.
