From a researcher

"The validity and reliability of this unique battery of 360's, both the original and new titles, exceed the standards of our profession. Over the years my colleagues and I have conducted studies that reveal their rather amazing strategic value and insights. It is not uncommon to find correlations to performance as high as .5 and above. And, in the search for the key to retaining and developing top talent, the surveys have proven to be useful tools for individual managers and strategic leaders."
