Peer Assessment
The peer assessment or peer appraisal provides feedback on an individual from team members. This is helpful to gain insight into each employee’s strengths and weaknesses.
Use a Peer Assessment to:
- As a manager, better understand your team, its cohesion and where improvements need to happen.
- As an employee, learn from your teammates about areas where they value you and ways you can be more helpful to them.
- Gain more insight into all of the above with ReportR, which compiles a personalized PDF report explaining the feedback of your peers.

What is a Peer Assessment?
How is your team performing and collaborating? As a manager, you probably have a good idea of the answer to this as a general question – especially if you use a team assessment. However, how is each individual on your performing? What are they like when you – as a manager – aren’t around?
Peer assessments help managers – and employees – understand each individual teammate. They provide insight into their performance, collaboration skills, and general attitude toward the job. These assessments also highlight each teammates strengths and weaknesses.
One example of a peer assessment is the 360 assessment, where teammates receive feedback from their managers as well as peers. This assessment paints a holistic picture of each employee, which is helpful for both managers and the individual being assessed.

Tips to create a great Peer Assessment
- Vary your types of questions with multiple choice, scales and open-ended questions. Your employees have so much to do, so you need to keep them engaged to gather helpful feedback.
- Keep them anonymous. This secures the team’s trust, so you get honest feedback without fear of repercussions.
- Make sure it’s clear to your team that you want constructive feedback, this isn’t an opportunity to simply trash their teammates.
