I have touched on this topic before but a recent client project utilising our 360 degree feedback tool to assess their effectiveness prompted some more musings on what is becoming a growing area of interest for both ourselves and our clients.

Working with senior leadership teams demands assessment and measurement both of individual performance and behaviours, as well as that of the team as a whole entity.

High performing teams have long been identified by their ability to handle conflict, engender trust, communicate optimally, hold each other to account and be committed to acheive results.

Using a simple survey to prompt a '360 degree feedback style' self-evaluation by all team members on how they perceive 'the team' is an excellent exercise and one that can generate real insights into what is working well and what is holding the team back from performing to the very best of it's ability.
