Do some online research regarding employee evaluations in general and "360" evaluations in particular. Look for the pros and cons of 360 degree performance reviews.
Write at a four-paragraph short essay in which you address the following questions in order.
What is "360" employee evaluation and its intended value to an organization?
How can employee evaluations affect employee morale and productivity?
Do you think there is a risk that evaluations can become a "game" in which everyone gives others positive evaluations (rather than honest, constructive evaluations) in order to help keep the peace? Explain.
If you have been involved in employee evaluation (360 or otherwise) what are your feelings about it? If you have not, imaging your feelings. Do you think the feelings of employees about evaluations are a reflection of the culture of the organization? Explain.
