Managers and frontline supervisors are critical to carrying out the missions of organizations and to employee engagement and development. For years, senior managers have used 360 degree feedback from peers and higher-level managers to receive information about their performance. This process, however, has sometimes proven to be unwieldy and time consuming, not to mention expensive.
The steps to improving managerial effectiveness don't have to be complicated, but they do need to be focused on the areas where they will yield the greatest benefits. The Newmeasures Manager Survey was developed in the same innovative spirit that characterizes our employee survey. Organizations identify the managerial behaviors that are basic for every manager in the organization. We keep the list short, under 15 items that current research indicates are the most critical competencies for leadership effectiveness, and ask employees to rate their manager on these behaviors. Managers receive a confidential report that offers actionable steps to improve leadership skills.
