Johnson

& Johnson Advanced Behavioral Technology (JJABT), based in Denver, Colorado, has instituted a new 720degree feedback system.

the most important consideration in implementing the system is

choosing the right individuals to be raters.


To assemble the rating group, JJABT employees develop a list

of key internal and external customers with whom they interact and then recommend five to ten individuals to serve as raters.

The JJABT 720-degree appraisal form includes items such as

Does the employee : Follow up on problems, decisions, and requests in a timely fashion? Clearly communicate his or her needs/expectations? Share information or help others? Listen to others? Establish plans to meet future needs?
Raters score these items on a scale ranging from 1 (needs

improvement) to 5 (outstanding). Space is also provided for the raters to make written comments.

Employees supervisor summarizes the data and determines the final

performance rating.
The supervisor conducts the formal appraisal interview with the rate

Yes the rating system is useful as it is benchmarked

against the mean score and distribution range .


The supervisor has full authority in the appraisal process

thus after the supervisor has summarized the report, and appraised the ratee, the performance appraisal should be evaluated by management one level higher than the direct supervisor .

In the appraisal process anonymity helps rater feel

confident in evaluating the ratee and giving his free and frank feedback on the ratees behavioral aspects. He can mark the employee what he deserves .
It helps the rater evaluate the employee on a fair and

unbiased basis without the fear of his identity being revealed to the ratee.
