Nothing can be more unsettling for family business owners than to see two family members butting heads about how things should be done. That kind of conflict left unattended can cause long-term irreparable damage to the family and the business.
360° feedback is a perfect tool to help people understand how they are perceived by others and how they can be more effective. The key, of course, is making sure you get real unfiltered feedback.
Many families appreciate the involvement of the third-party facilitator to help ensure participants really embrace the feedback. For those families wanting to perform the 360° feedback on their own, we offer free templates that can help families make sure and set the right tone for getting feedback. Those forms can be found here.
We also offer a short video that helps everyone get familiar with 360° feedback. The video can be found here.
Taking over the family business in today’s world requires leaders to be fearless and resilient. Nothing helps a leader build those muscles quicker than some good old-fashioned 360° feedback!
Play to your family’s potential! Coach
