The Profiles Checkpoint 360

The Profiles CheckPoint 360 Competency Feedback System is a feedback process that provides managers and leaders with an opportunity to receive an evaluation of their job performance from the people around them – their boss, their peers, and the people whose work they supervise.

From this feedback, managers can compare the opinions of others with their own perceptions, positively identify their strengths, and pinpoint the areas of their job performance that could be improved. 
This assessment process is concerned with a manager’s job performance in eight skill clusters and 18 universal competencies, described as follows: 


  • Communication 

  • Listens to others

  • Processes information

  • Communicates effectively 

  • Leadership 

  • Instills trust

  • Provides direction

  • Delegates responsibility 

  • Adaptability

  • Adjusts to circumstances

  • Thinks creatively 

  • Relationships

  • Builds personal relationships

  • Facilitates team success 

  • Task Management

  • Works efficiently

  • Works competently 

  • Production

  • Take action

  • Achieves results 

  • Development of Others

  • Cultivates individual talents

  • Motivates successfully 

  • Personal Development 

  • Displays commitment

  • Seeks improvement 

The Process
Each participant completes an evaluation, a process that takes about 30 minutes. They are guaranteed anonymity (except for the “Boss”) and urged to be honest and objective in their responses. Participants may complete their assignments via the Internet and results from all participants are compiled in a report that is returned to the manager. 

Full Colour Report
CheckPoint Reports have easy to read graphs and charts as well as narrative descriptions of the results to help the manager read, understand, and effectively use the data for self-development. The report has a special personal growth section that coaches the manager and helps improve performance in development areas.

The CheckPoint 360 Competency Feedback System is an effective managerial development system that can stimulate significant performance improvements.

When To Use
If the benefits of a strong well motivated team are clear then the missed opportunities and the wasted time dealing with “people problems” are sometimes not so clear ...

Interviews
That most traditional and widely used of recruitment tools – and yet studies show that the ability to do well in an interview has a low correlation with the ability to do well in the job itself. In the region of 14% correlation – only one in seven is a successful hire!
