How to Help Leaders Embrace 360 Feedback for Growth

360-degree feedback is a powerful tool for leadership development, offering insights that can drive real improvement. But the key to turning feedback into action isn’t just about the data—it’s about how leaders receive it.

Leaders often approach feedback with different mindsets. Some are open and eager to learn, while others may be skeptical or even resistant. Understanding these mindsets is crucial to ensuring that feedback leads to real change.

Here at Star360feedback, we’ve discovered the 7 most common mindsets people have when they encounter feedback. (Before we tell you what the seven are though, lets talk about mindsets in general.)

Why Mindset Matters in 360 Feedback

How a leader feels about the feedback process can make or break its impact. For example, a skeptical leader might think, “Why should I trust this feedback?” and dismiss it.

In contrast, a leader with a more open mindset is likely to embrace the feedback and use it as a guide for growth.

By recognizing these mindsets early on, you can tailor your approach to ensure that leaders stay engaged and focused on development.
