Dear rater's-first-name, As part of my leadership development, I am doing a 360° feedback process. I would appreciate it if you would rate my leadership and management skills. You will be asked to identify areas in which I do well and areas that I could develop.
How to carry out 360-degree feedback for leaders Invest in the newest technology solutions. Take a look at your current multi-rater systems. Define leadership. Some organisations don't define clearly who their leaders are, or their areas of responsibility. Identify the next leaders. Monitor progress and growth.
Positive 360 feedback examples The approach you have to resolving conflicts is commendable. Your active listening and tactful communication have helped to transform conflicts into opportunities for growth and team bonding.
Here are examples of positive leadership feedback: “I've been really impressed with the way you've fostered collaboration within the team. Your open communication style and active listening have created a work environment where everyone feels valued and heard.
“I appreciate how you always listen to our ideas and encourage open communication within the team. It makes us feel valued and respected.” Highlighting this behaviour reinforces its positive impact on team morale.
How to give 360 feedback to your boss Start with positive feedback. When giving 360-degree feedback, it's good to lead with a positive appraisal of your manager's performance. Review your relationship. Give examples. Be objective. Plan your feedback. Be empathetic. Practise.
Positive Examples: “I admire your ability to build strong relationships with team members, as it helps build up the team's trust in your leadership.” “I am impressed with your ability to lead by example and inspire others to do their best work. It fosters a positive and productive team dynamic.”
What Is 360-degree Feedback? Also called a multirater tool, 360-degree feedback is a process to survey a group of people who work around a leader about the leader's performance and behavior.
When giving constructive feedback to your manager, you might want to include topics such as effective time management strategies, and being more open to communication so the team is more in sync. “You manage your time well. Sharing your time management strategies with the team could improve our overall productivity.”
“I appreciate how you always listen to our ideas and encourage open communication within the team. It makes us feel valued and respected.” Highlighting this behaviour reinforces its positive impact on team morale.
