360 Appraisals | Human Resource Management
360-Appraisals, also know as “multi-rater feedback” or “peer appraisals,” can create a comprehensive view of an employee’s performance. HRsmart’s 360-Appraisal Solution allows managers to extend beyond employee peers by gathering feedback from clients, vendors or others with whom they frequently interact.

HRsmart’s 360-Appraisal Solution provides an easy method for gathering critical data. This strategic tool can help managers:

Gauge employee performance. Managers typically only see a piece of the picture, but what they don’t see can be even more telling. When feedback is gathered from peers or outside contacts, a person’s true value can become more apparent. Perhaps a customer service manager goes above and beyond every time they receive a call, or vendors receive all of the information they need on the first inquiry.

Identify leaders. 360-Appraisals can help managers more effectively pinpoint group leaders. Peer reviews are a great way to determine who had leadership ability within a group by helping you identify employees who motivate others, set good examples and can be trusted by peers to do their part—traits that are often overlooked or hard to identify in team or group settings.

Increase employee awareness. 360 appraisals provide insight into competencies and skills held by employees and can help employees better understand how the behaviors and attitudes they exhibit impacts those around them. Anonymous feedback also encourages more open feedback and honestly, particularly when direct peers and managers are involved and Human Resource Management.

Create and manage 360 assessments. This easy-to-use system allows appraisal owners to easily generate assessments, then quickly edit, view and print the results. Data can be captured in an employee’s annual performance assessment with the option to include it in the overall rating.

HRsmart’s 360-Appraisal solution is a core component of the Employee Performance Management solution; however, it can be purchased as a stand-alone application. Contact a sales representative for more information.
