Abstract

The 360 degree feedback approach has been implemented by many organisations for development or performance evaluation objectives. This paper questions the effectiveness of 360 degree feedback implementations in rating employee performance. This literature review was conducted on 360 degree feedback practice with performance evaluation purposes. The aim of this review was to define and discuss the 360 degree feedback; contrasting the process with the other methods and identifying whether this is a good way of performing appraising or not. The superiority of multi-rater feedback to the traditional methods and the dominance of advantages over disadvantages lead us to conclude that the 360 degree feedback is effective in rating performance.
