The Situation Typical 360s rarely create behavior change – they aren’t designed to. The way they present information actually increases managers’ resistance to change. They don’t focus managers on the few behaviors where change is most critical. They don’t provide managers with practical advice for exactly how to change. The typical 360 is an assessment tool, not a change tool. If you want managers to change behaviors, you need the OPTM360. Our Approach
The OPTM360 instantly focuses your managers on their three priorities for change and tells them exactly how to improve those behaviors. After reading their OPTM360’s first two pages managers have exactly the information they need to take action. We achieve this result through our unique “Do More” to “Do Less” scale, behavior prioritization process and “feed forward” development approach. The OPTM360 eliminates the negative reactions caused by typical 360s and any excuses a manager might use to avoid changing their behavior. Even better, the survey itself takes less than 10 minutes to complete. This allows more raters to participate and shows your organization that helping their colleagues improve can be fast and pain-free. After using the OPTM360, our clients typically stop using any other feedback tool.
