What is a 360° review?
A 360° review is a process by which you solicit, compile, and interpret feedback from those closest to you, to help inform your personal and professional growth.
A review typically consists of a scripted series of questions which are asked to a select number of people (usually 5-7 folks selected from different parts of your personal & professional lives), about how they experience you, your strengths, and any areas for growth.
Answers are then compiled, sorted for patterns and themes, and the result is offered as a tool to catalyze a conscious growth effort.

There’s a reason that most leadership experts recommend that leaders start by commissioning a 360-degree review — a process that actively solicits feedback from those around the leader on the leader’s strengths and areas for improvement:
They work.
There’s also a reason that most leaders don’t regularly do 360° reviews, and come up with logical sounding reasons (too busy, too expensive, too…) not to:
They’re scary.
A major part of leadership is confronting your fears head on, and that’s exactly what you’ll practice doing here.

Many 360° reviews are conducted by an outside party. There is good reason for this, as often people will not give their leaders honest feedback to their face, and it can be helpful to anonymize feedback to ensure accuracy. Inside-Out offers a robust, done-for-you 360° Review process for this reason.
That said, we have also seen that if leaders ask well (a process which we’ll describe next), they can disarm the feedback giver’s defense mechanisms and receive much more honest feedback. In addition, receiving feedback directly can even offer nuance that is lost in a 3rd party process.
