The power of feedback

Spotit’s 360° evaluation cycle

At spotit, we believe that growth thrives on honest and constructive feedback. That's why we've embraced a 360° evaluation cycle that goes beyond traditional top-down assessments. In our approach, every voice matters—team leads evaluate employees, peers provide valuable insights about their colleagues, and employees have the opportunity to share their perspective on their team leads.

This holistic method fosters a culture of trust, transparency, and collaboration, ensuring everyone gets a clear view of their strengths and areas for improvement. By valuing feedback from everyone you work with, we aim to empower individuals, strengthen teams, and achieve collective excellence. Because at spotit, growth isn’t a solo journey—it’s a team effort.

Bringing multiple perspectives to the table

Every October, we start our yearly evaluation cycle by inviting peers to provide feedback. Those peers can be your direct colleagues or members from other teams you have worked with on specific projects. Employees can invite 3 to 5 peers of their own choice to get valuable insights on their skills, communication, and collaboration efforts. Important to note is that feedback is not provided anonymously. We highly value transparency throughout the entire process.

Next is receiving feedback from your team lead. They score you on several professional skills, soft skills, and our spotit values. The goal is to always support the score with extensive feedback and examples. Employees get the chance to evaluate their team lead as well. Great leadership starts with listening and taking feedback into account.

All this information is stored in your profile in our evaluation tool we also use to track goals and design your career. There you can always review your evaluations and goals.

Empowering growth through meaningful dialogue

We do not only question skills, but also ask about work happiness and fulfilment, realizations you are proud of, struggles you encountered, if you are on track with your goals, and how you see your career evolve.

All this input from yourself, your team lead, and your peers will be discussed during a conversation with your manager. The perfect moment to clarify expectations, explore opportunities, and co-create a personalized roadmap for growth. By fostering a two-way exchange, we ensure employees feel heard and valued while empowering them to take ownership of their development. This approach not only strengthens trust but also aligns individual aspirations with team and company objectives, driving collective success.

Aligning feedback with your personal goals

At beginning of each year, spotit sets company wide goals that will be translated into team objectives and personal milestones. Aligning feedback with these personal goals is an essential step in ensuring every employee’s efforts contribute to the bigger picture. Throughout the year, fix moments require employees to update their personal goals to verify if they are on track, and take the necessary steps when alarms rise.

During the evaluation conversation with the team lead, all provided feedback helps employees identify how their strengths and areas for improvement align with their individual goals, the team objectives, and the company goals. This alignment ensures that personal growth is purposeful and impactful.
