When I was in college, there was some surveys that evaluates the professors, by the students, in order to provide aggregated feedback and points for improvement. As one professor put it to us: “it’s pointless, the people that use it as feedback to improve are already good teachers because are using other ways to get better; and the ones that just ignore the surveys doesn’t care about any other way of improving. So the exercise is irrelevant” I think management is the same, good managers take frequent opportunities to give feedback, manage, and care for their managees, and fill a form that it’s already redundant. Bad managers fill a form once a year and ignore it the rest of the year. But, hey, we have a form that’s mostly ignored by everyone.
