Oct. 8, 2009 - PRLog -- Element 78 Solution Ltd’s automated 360 degree product introduced at Pearson Shared Services Ltd is giving ownership of the appraisal process to one of the company’s management divisions.

As part of Pearson Plc, with international brands including The Financial Times and Penguin Books, Pearson Shared Services offers management and support services including IT systems to the group.

Commenting on the adoption of the Carbon360 product from Element78, Jackie Fraser-Smith, HR Director for Pearson Shared Services said:
“Our business analysis and project management teams work on a wide variety of IT solutions for a range of internal clients. Operating remotely from their line managers and working to project timelines, means that an appraisal tool which captures timely, first-hand feedback from various stakeholders is beneficial for both the people being reviewed and their line manager.

“With Element78’s 360 degree appraisal product, we have given the person being appraised ownership and control of the process: they define the relevant members of their working community to give feedback and record their own objectives. By using this system, the appraisal process is not constrained by paperwork or the traditional annual cycle – this offers a flexibility that ensures salient and timely detail is not overlooked and we capture a variety of view points.”

Pearson Shared Services’ move to adopt the Carbon360 product for 24 employees in its business analysis and project management division followed a pilot review implemented by seven reviewees, including appraisal interviews utilising the PDF output file from the automated solution.
