Leadership & Management Development – 360 Feedback
360 degree feedback is a powerful development tool to help you identify where your leadership strengths and development needs lie - regardless of job role. The process includes getting anonymous feedback from line managers, peers and direct reports (where applicable). This feedback is then facilitated with you through a conversation with a trained facilitator during which you will be provided with a copy of your 360 Feedback Report.
