Sales Manager View 360 Graphs Self-Other Perceptions KEY POINTS § Sales Manager View 360 uses average scores based on the 1 to 5 “positive response” frequency scale (Almost never, Infrequently, Sometimes, Frequently, Almost Always) § The bar graphs summarize self and other perceptions on each of the 17 separate competencies § The legend to the right of the graph will summarize average score and number of raters for each category § Range of scores for each rater group are graphed

Sales Manager View 360 Most Frequent/Least Frequent Section KEY POINTS § The “Most Frequent” section and “Least Frequent” section summarizes those competencies and behaviors that were most frequently/least frequently observed by various rater groups § The number in the first column corresponds to the average score for all raters providing feedback (1 to 5 scale) § The “Most Frequent” should be considered as perceived strengths to leverage and build on § The “Least Frequent” should be considered as possible behaviors to practice more frequently

Sales Manager View 360 Behavior Summary KEY POINTS § Each Sales Manager View 360 question is summarized and categorized in its appropriate competency § Average scores across all raters are reported for each competency and question § A statistical measure of rater agreement based on the standard deviation is reported as a percentage—a score less than 50% suggests that the raters providing feedback had enough disagreement to warrant a cautious interpretation of the average score reported (e. g. , raters had diverse perceptions and rated the participant quite differently on that question or competency)

Sales Manager View 360 Written Comments Section KEY POINTS § Three open ended comments: Doing More, Doing Less, Doing Differently § Comments are randomly listed by all raters who volunteered to share written perceptions to two openended questions (perceptions of strengths and development areas) § Comments are provided verbatim from the online questionnaire—no editing § Some comments are specific, behavioral and constructive —others may be less useful or hard to understand § It is important to focus on themes that emerge, rather than, to dwell on any one individual comment

Sales Manager View 360 Feedback Report Questions to Consider § Do I understand my Sales Manager View 360 feedback report? § Does it seem accurate/valid? § Is the feedback similar or different for the different rater groups? § Are the areas perceived by others for development relevant to my current or future position? § Am I motivated to change?
