Tilmouth and Quallington (2012) discuss 360 degree reflection which asks people to reflect on their conduct after gathering information from a variety of sources that include those you have authority over and those under your authority. Questionnaires can be used to conduct this 360 degree feedback and the Chartered Institute for Personnel and Development (CIPD) provides free resources to achieve this.
