360 Assessments or appraisals for supervisors and managers, I believe would bring more accountability and make those in decision making position more accountable, basically keep them honest if they know everyone has a say in their performance. A lot of times subordinates or those not in the reporting chain have information that is relevant to those writing assessment that should be considered. In addition, it would also identify training shortfalls for those in the supervisory/managerial positions, for example a lot of times supervisors/managers will not volunteer for training or developmental improvements because they do not realize or admit they are a bad communicator, or lack people skills. Training for managers and supervisors should be continuous.
