1. Define objectives - It is important to define exactly what 360-degree feedback is expected to achieve. It will be necessary to spell out the extent to which it is concerned with personal development, appraisal or pay.
2. Decide on recipients - Who is to be at the receiving end of feedback. This may be an indication of who will eventually be covered after a pilot scheme.
3. Decide on who will give the feedback - The individual?s manager, direct reports, team members, other colleagues, internal and external customers. A decision will also have to be made on whether HR staff or outside consultants should take part in helping managers to make use of the feedback. A further decision will need to be made on whether or not the feedback should be anonymous (it usually is).
4. Decide on the areas of work and behavior on which feedback will be given – this may be in line with an existing competency model or it may take the form of a list of headings for development. Clearly, the model should fit the culture, values and type of work carried out in the organization. But it might be decided that a list of headings or questions in a software package would be acceptable, at least to start with.
5. Decide on the method of collecting the data – The questionnaire could be designed in-house or a consultant’s or software provider’s questionnaire could be adopted, with the possible option of amending it later to produce better fit.
6. Decide on data analysis and presentation - Again, the decision is on developing the software in-house or using a package. Most organizations installing 360-degree feedback do, in fact, purchase a package from a consultancy or software house. But the aim should be to keep it as simple as possible.
7. Plan initial implementation program - It is desirable to pilot the process, preferably at top level or with all the managers in a function or department. The scheme will need to be launched with communications to those involved about the purpose of 360-degree feedback, how it will work and the part they will play. The aim is to spell out the benefits and, as far as possible, allay any fears. Training in giving and receiving feedback will also be necessary.
8. Analyze outcome of pilot scheme - The reactions of those taking part in a pilot scheme should be analyzed and necessary changes made to the process, the communication package and the training.
9. Plan and implement full program – This should include briefing, communicating, training and support from HR and, possibly, the external consultants.
10. Monitor and evaluate – Maintain a particularly close watch on the initial implementation of feedback, but monitoring should continue. This is a process that can cause anxiety and stress, or produce little practical gain in terms of development and improved performance for a lot of effort.

Jackson and Bak (1998) suggest that motivation of Chinese workers can be understood in terms of Katz and Kahn’s (1978) categorization of ‘rule enforcement’, ‘external rewards’ and ‘internalized motivation’, as follows.
Rules and role prescriptions may be regarded as a form of role protection in the Chinese context, with job descriptions carrying little motivational content in terms of tasks or objectives to be achieved, but acting as an insurance against being asked to take on additional and unknown duties and against being overworked and avoiding the risk of punishment.
China’s economic reformers have used material incentives in order to stimulate performance and there is evidence that money is important in China as a motivator, as individual bonuses have existed in China since 1978 and performance-related bonus incentives schemes since 1983. However, there has been a tendency towards low differentiation of pay in an egalitarian reward system, reflecting a need to minimize competition and foster harmony in the workplace: a reflecting of a strongly
27
collectivist culture. Limited pay differentials are often based on length of service. State enterprise employees?wage structures are extremely complex and based on a whole number of different subsidies, bonuses and allowances. Employees may be reluctant to leave this type of system for a less socially supportive one as there is an expectation that the enterprise will take care of employees through housing and other social benefits, which must have a strong loyalty effect.
A major source of internalized motivation in China has been political indoctrination and campaigning, including ‘emulation campaigns’ in communist China involving ‘labor heroes’ in an attempt to appeal to high performers who might otherwise feel inhibited to perform in an exemplary manner in an egalitarian culture. In a related way Japanese companies in China send their best workers to Japan in order to learn from example and from being exposed to a foreign culture and encourage a willingness to change. Building a sense of belongingness and loyalty in Chinese workers creates a good opportunity to develop internalized motivation from developing corporate identity through a strong organizational culture. New patterns of behavior (including creativity and innovation) could be encouraged by emulation, both in the workplace and on training courses in China and, where appropriate (particularly for managerial and supervisory staff who can act as role models) abroad.
