Many of you may have seen this research which touches on the benefits of 360 degree feedback covered by BBC Breakfast last week.
It referenced a new report co-funded by the Health & Safety Executive, the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development and Investors in People.
The essence of it was to highlight that managers who received upwards feedback, with regard to certain management behaviours that are believed to help prevent and reduce stress amongst their staff, were more likely to modify their behaviour in these areas for the better, compared to the test group of managers who didn't receive such feedback.
A good example of the need for people, managers or otherwise, to use 360 degree feedback to improve their behaviour in the workplace.
Alas, the media, seeking a more punchy story, reduced it to the headline of 'standing up to your boss works wonders...assuming you don't get the sack!'.
