Psychometrics 360

Multi-source rating tool on 24 key employee competencies

The Psychometrics 360 instrument provides straightforward, intuitive, yet anonymous multi-source feedback to help employees quickly identify their strengths and developmental needs, helping them to drive their work performance in terms of competencies linked to employee effectiveness. The tool recognizes that people often display different behaviours based on the role of the person with whom they are interacting. To account for these differences, ratings are obtained from people with varied relationships to the participating employees. Possible sources of feedback ratings include supervisors, co-workers, direct reports, and customers. Therefore, perceptions are obtained based on observations of the employees’ behaviour in multiple contexts. The feedback provides employees with ratings that indicate how others perceive their work-related behaviours within relationships that vary by characteristics such as expectations and balance of authority. The clarity of the Psychometrics 360 feedback report may therefore enhance employees’ self-awareness, professional development and performance, by enabling them to easily recognise key themes in the responses from others and suggest actionable steps for growth.
