360‐degree feedback with systematic coaching: Empirical analysis suggests a winning combination
Abstract
Wanted: High‐performance work practices to gain a competitive advantage. An increasingly common answer to this desperate call is 360‐degree programs; unfortunately, they have, at best, mixed reviews when empirically assessed. This study found that a way to improve the effectiveness of 360s may be to combine them with coaching focused on enhanced self‐awareness and behavioral management. In a small manufacturer, this feedback‐coaching resulted in improved manager and employee satisfaction, commitment, intentions to turnover, and at least indirectly, this firm's performance. This feedback‐coaching may be a winning combination to help in the competitive battles in today's global economy.
