Slightly off-tangent, but:
What is the top reason people leave jobs? (Answer: they dislike their immediate manager)
I know this, everybody knows this, and still it amazes me how few places have bottom up (or so called 360) assessments of their managers.
- mcantor 16y agoTechnically, if your comment is slightly off-topic, that would make it slightly on-tangent.
- imp 16y agoYeah, I once asked about that kind of review at a company that didn't have it, and everyone automatically assumed that I hated my manager and wanted to get her in trouble. In fact, the opposite was true. For some reason people think that the only purpose of upward feedback is to rat on your boss.
- frossie 16y agoSad isn't it. And good managers want that feedback, but if there is no workplace structure for it, it's hard to obtain properly because HR isn't handling the anonymity, training on how to give the right sort of feedback and so on. Hmmm. Maybe I should set up a surveymonkey template or something for people who are interested in doing it themselves.
- flostre 16y agoI hope you could set it straight.
