Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

360-degree feedback is primarily designed to provide feedback for developmental purposes, allowing an employee to receive feedback from multiple sources including self-evaluation, supervisor, peers, subordinates, and other stakeholders. It is less commonly used for promotion or pay decisions and is not necessarily focused on competition between coworkers. While it is becoming more popular, it is not yet the most frequently used form of performance appraisal in U.S. firms.
