1. Varieties of forms
   I think that the idea of a standard form is misleading. Surely each organisation needs to design a specific form to meet its own business needs and fit its structures.. Clive Fletcher’s book ‘ Appraisal – Routes to improved performance is useful in this respect. We are currently piloting 360 degree and I would be pleased to contact you when the pilot is evaluated.

2. 360o Feedback
   There’s no such thing as a standard appraisal form, but you should have a look at
   http://www.the360.co.uk
   It’s a website dedicated (as the name would suggest) to 360o feedback on the internet.
   Hope that’s useful,

3. agree with Elaine
   I agree with Elaine – there is no such thing as a standard form. There are generic principles and processes, but each needs to be tailored.

   Try speaking to Marie Burns at Team Focus on 01628 637338- they have a variety of 360 forms and one for On Line use -WOW!

4. 360 Degree Appraisals the pros & cons of standard forms.
   Whilst I agree that one” shoe- size” does not fit all and indeed should, in the perfect world be designed for the target audience I have found a couple of sources that have been very helpful. In a controlled way introducing and supporting standard 360 can help to secure individual change.

   Simon Haben ( Ward Dutton Partnership – The IPD publication 360 – Degree Feedback written by Peter Ward) 01763 837111. They have a Development Feedback Questionnaire and a Leadership Feedback questionnaire.

   Bernard Wynne and David Clutterbuck ( Making 360 Degree Appraisal Work For You – Peter Honey Publications 01628 633946).

   Perhaps the most important point is to ensure that the target group are supported by training to introduce the use of 360 and actively supported by effective and competent Facilitators. Please ensure that your most senior managers actively support this initiative and lead by example.

   Good hunting
