Mastering 360 Degree Leadership

This authoritative volume presents 360 Degree Feedback as a systematic, evidence-based methodology for leadership development. Drawing on decades of empirical research and large-scale application, it demonstrates how multi source feedback deepens self-awareness, reveals latent leadership capabilities, and strengthens managerial effectiveness. Integrating contemporary leadership theory with feedback driven development, the authors offer a rigorous framework for leveraging strengths and addressing developmental needs to create value for organisations and society. Combining scholarly insight with practical guidance, the book outlines a comprehensive methodology for designing, implementing, and evaluating 360 Degree Feedback interventions. Longitudinal studies involving thousands of managers, supported by rich case evidence, illuminate best practices in coaching, competency development, and overcoming behavioural barriers. Dedicated chapters explore applications across corporate environments, educational institutions, NGOs, and public systems, demonstrating the model’s versatility and cross sector relevance. Essential for academic researchers, graduate students, HR professionals, and organisational development consultants, this text is particularly suited for advanced study in leadership theory, performance management, and strategic HRD. It addresses the global need for research driven, actionable approaches to leadership development. Above all, it serves as a practical guide for managers seeking meaningful transformation into leaders.
