In this article, the writer gives an example of an executive who was able to understand the negative 360 Degree Feedback he received through discussing his values with the 360 Coach.
“During a coaching session a derailed executive said: “I want my kids to be proud of me.” After reporting any negative behavior I would ask, “Would your kids be proud of you if they knew you were doing this?” When the answer was “no” he thought twice about acting in a negative manner. The result was a decrease in those actions that were derailing his career”.
It’s really important to discuss your 360 Degree Feedback with someone you trust, whether it’s your manager, coach, mentor, or just a good friend. Talking to someone else about the positive and the negative feedback can help you get perspective and much more value from the feedback.
