A 360 feedback survey can be one of the easiest ways to solicit feedback from multiple employee evaluations.
Unlike other surveys done through email, you would still need to export and reformat the data to analyze the results.
However, the 360 survey process already has the statistical model set up. As answers come in, they are tabulated, graphed, and meaningful results can be viewed at a glance.
Once the HR manager has reviewed the results, they can be disseminated to managers to help the entire organization get better at what they do.
The Top 3 Ways a 360 Survey Facilitates Employee Evaluations
The process of employee evaluations no longer needs to occupy a large amount of time from your management staff. With 360 surveys, they can just be one more participant in a process that, after the questions are chosen, can basically run itself. The 360 degree feedback software is set up to do the following:
1. Automatically Email Participants
The survey will be automatically mailed to the participants who will rate their peers, direct reports, and managers as well as themselves. The HR person will just designate the raters for each individual and emails will be sent accordingly. Usually each participant will have between 3 to 5 raters, who will also be participants in their turn.
2. Collects Data
The entire process is automated so that no data is lost or needs to be exported or reformatted. All of the participants will get data collected from each of their raters and the system will then collate it for multiple, individual, reports.
It does this for each participant, cross-referencing different raters to their individual participants. It also never loses track of the data for multiple employee evaluations.
3. Generates a Report
The data will be analyzed by the 360 survey software to generate multiple reports. One for each participant.
The report can spotlight strengths and also opportunities where the employee can improve.
As a bonus, the 360 survey can easily be tweaked and rolled out once again.
This provides Human Resources with a template of questions that can be used to determine how each group in the company is progressing.
Human Resources can just set up an intermittent schedule and let the software do all the number-crunching. Create visually-appealing reports that tell them the whole story, with minimal effort on their part.
