360 Degree Avalanche
There is an intrinsic attraction to 360-degree feedback. Traditional feedback processes are effectively one-degree type systems with, usually, the immediate supervisor providing the employee with uni-directional comment. By involving more than just one person in the feedback process, the process is likely to be more meaningful for both supervisor and employee with greater representation in the amount and type of information supplied.

180 and 360 Degree Assessments for the Sales Force
There are not a lot of companies that undertake 180 degree or 360 degree assessments of the sales force and that's a good thing because there are so many limitations. The 180 - The salesperson or sales manager does a self-rating on the predetermined competencies and attributes and the individual's boss conducts the same ratings.

Licensing v. Franchising
This article discusses the elements of a trademark license and of a franchise and the "Twilight Zone" between the two with respect to the degree of assistance the licensor provides and the degree of control the licensor exerts over the licensee method of operation.

Organizational Measurement and Feedback Pathways and Pitfalls (Part Two)
Get teams to develop their own measures. Make sure they're broad, balanced, and simple. Get the measurement points as close and as immediate to the activities being performed as possible. Move your team and organization to a 360-degree performance feedback system - starting with you. 360-degree feedback involves gathering data and performance perceptions from the people reporting to you, the people you serve in the customer/partner chain, your suppliers, and the manager(s) you report to. Your role in helping others on your team move to this approach, is that of a coach. You will provide your performance feedback as one of the many sources for your team and individual members.
