What is the 360-degree feedback?

Performex gathers feedback in five key management skill areas in order to individualize your program to fit your specific needs. We survey your supervising manager, peers, direct reports, and others who interact with you during your workday. This information is then compiled into a feedback report and analyzed by your workshop facilitator to make your program the most meaningful to you.

What is an "survey invitation"?

Once you have registered for a workshop and we have gathered the list of survey contributors then Performex survey administrator will send you an email invitation specfic to each individual taking the survey. You will have unlimited access to the survey until you complete the process by clicking "Submit to Performex." Keep this invitation email and the link included in the email private, because that will be the only way to ensure your feedback will be confidential.

What kind of information do you collect in the survey?

The survey asks respondents to evaluate your management performance numerically (from 1-5) in several key management skill groups: communicating, planning, reviewing, coaching, and leading. Then we ask the respondent for written comments on your strengths and challenges in each of these same management skill areas.

How do you ensure my anonymity when filling out the survey?

The participant and supervising manager comments are identified and labeled in the feedback report. All others, i.e. peers, direct reports, associates and others are grouped by relationship classification. We take the extra step to shuffle the responses and comments throughout the report to further preserve the respondent’s identity. Be aware of phraseology and examples that may inadvertently reveal your identity.

What if I am the spouse or partner and some of these questions do not apply?

The spouse of any participant is asked to respond to the survey from the perspective of how the participant fills the role of a family manager at home. Please select "n/a" - not applicable in areas that do not apply.

What if I do not know how to answer some of these questions or they are not relevant to my relationship with the participant?

Please select "n/a" - not applicable. Also remember to answer "3" or average as little as possible.

What if I have some thoughts that do not fit into the questionnaire format?

Please compile these remarks on a document and send as an e-mail attachment to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . Be sure to include your access code. The anonymous comments will be added verbatim to the Feedback Report in a section entitled "Additional Comments."

If I have missed the cut-off date can I still submit my response?

Please contact your internal coordinator or our Performex program registrar if you need an extension on your cut-off date. You can reach our registrar by e-mail at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it or by phone at (949) 759-1928.

I know there is something preventing me from getting my next promotion, but I don’t know what it is. Will this help?

Through the feedback process and the ability to see how you are perceived in the workplace, you will be able to set a clear direction for career development.
