A Project is the workspace where you set up, manage, monitor, and complete a specific 360-degree feedback project.
Each Project brings together the questionnaire, people, email communications, response activity, and feedback reports associated with that project.
What is a Project?
A Project represents a specific 360-degree feedback initiative. Depending on your needs, you may create separate Projects for different groups, assessment cycles, clients, or programs.
Each Project contains its own:
- Project settings and timeline
- Questionnaire
- Subjects and Responders
- Email communications
- Response and participation information
- Individual and group feedback reports
Keeping these elements within a Project allows you to manage each 360-degree feedback initiative independently.
What You Can Do in a Project
When you open a project, its navigation gives you access to the different areas used to manage the assessments:
- Project Settings : General configuration for the project, including its name and title, timeline, locale, administrative settings, and other project-specific options.
- Questionnaires: Create and manage the content used to collect feedback. This includes sections, rating questions, rating scales, narrative comment questions, instructions, and other questionnaire settings.
- People: Add people, manage responder categories, designate Subjects (those receiving 360-degree feedback), and assign Responders (those providing feedback about the Subjects).
- Emails: Manage invitations, reminders, and other project communications.
- Status Reports: Monitor participation and response progress.
- Reports: Generate and review individual and group feedback reports.
Together, these areas guide you through the entire 360-degree feedback process, from project setup and feedback collection to reporting and development planning.
Tips for Working in a Project
To help ensure a successful 360-degree feedback process:
- Complete all setup steps before launching the project
- Finalize your questionnaire before inviting participants
- Review people data carefully to ensure names, email addresses, and assignments are accurate
- Monitor participation regularly to help maintain strong response rates
- Make any necessary adjustments before generating final reports
Taking time to review and verify your project setup can help prevent issues later in the feedback process.
