360-degree feedback is modern method of employee performance evaluation. It presents a clear picture of the employee?s performance and organizational environment and progress. It supports the organization for being adaptive and flexible according to the needs of their personnel. In the 360-degree feedback usually comments and views are taken from superior, peers, subordinates, worker and customers, and after the evaluation is complete the feedback is shared with the employee giving them a clear illustration and even suggesting areas for their growth by giving career developmental sessions. This paper presents the study of human resource literature and analyses the contribution of 360 feedbacks for both employee and organizational growth. The purpose is to suggest practice of 360-degree feedback in the higher educational institutes of Pakistan. Because from the study of the literature, it has been established that not only 360-degree feedback helps employees in their career development but also enhances organization performance.
