Manager reviews are crucial in performance evaluations as they provide an objective assessment based on direct observations, align employee performance with organizational goals, and offer constructive feedback for development. Additionally, manager reviews ensure consistency and fairness in evaluations and inform critical decisions related to promotions and raises, supporting both individual and organizational success.
When the review where you participate starts, you will be notified by email and on the platform.
The Me > Reviews tab contains all the info about the review you participate in. By default, the last current review opens, but you can click the review name on the left side to expand the list of all (current and past) reviews.
🪄 Some tasks within the review cycle are also displayed in the To-do's section on the Home page.
Overview tab
The Overview section contains a list of actions you must complete within the current review cycle. In the context of a 360 evaluation cycle, you can have the following tasks:
Evaluate yourself: objectively review your work and identify your strengths and weaknesses.
Evaluate the performance of your subordinates, their contributions and achievements.
Select and submit peer reviewers so they can evaluate you or your subordinates (depending on cycle settings). You can also approve or reject candidates selected by your employees.
ℹ️ In some cases, HR (when creating a review cycle) can assign you the management of peer reviewers for your subordinates.
4. Review your manager's work.
With such a step-by-step plan, you definitely won't miss anything. You can complete the tasks in your preferred order and submit the review when ready.
Peer nominations tab
Depending on the review settings, you can nominate peers by themselves or wait for their manager or HR to nominate reviewers. Despite that, reviewers selected by you can be approved automatically or require manager or HR approval. So, in this tab, you can check nominated colleagues and their approval status or submit and/or approve peers for your subordinates.
Write review tab
In the Write review tab, you can complete and submit the required reviews.
Results overview
After the cycle is complete and the administrator or HR shares the results, you will see all your score and comments in the Overview > Results overview section.
The Competencies part is based on the competencies from the question template used for the review. The results are shown as a diagram with the names of the competencies and the average values of all reviewers' scores. Below the diagram, you can also see the average points of the 3 highest- and lowest-rated competencies to analyze strengths and weaknesses.
Further on, you can find answers provided by all reviewers.
ℹ️ Peer and upward feedback always remain anonymous, so readers see only the comments without knowing the reviewers' names.
Direct report results overview
Managers can see their subordinates' review results when they are being reviewed.
ℹ️ HR can enable managers to view the results as soon as they are submitted or share the results at the end of the cycle.
In the My direct report results tab, you can see only the average rate of all the competencies scores from each reviewer party and whether these results are sent to the employee.
To get the detailed review results, you must click the employee's name.
Here, you can find a diagram with the names of the competencies and the average values of all reviewers' scores. Below the diagram, the average points for each competency given by review parties are shown.
The table also contains a GAP that shows the difference between how the employees rated themselves and the average value of how other parties rated the same indicators.
The results also contained detailed answers provided by all reviewers.
ℹ️ Peer and upward feedback always remain anonymous, so readers see only the comments without knowing the reviewers' names.
Additionally, you can have permission to share these results with your employees.
After reviewing and sharing these results, you can conduct 1-on-1 meetings with each employee to discuss the review and find ways to improve their work. This is a great opportunity to provide feedback, offer clarification, and set new goals for the employees' further development.
