Multi Rater Feedback

Overview
Reflection, as the name suggests, is exactly what this exercise of Multi Rater Feedback

(MRF) is. It aims at providing a comprehensive reflection of one’s own self and thereby
presenting to an individual a better understanding of his/her work and behaviour styles
and development areas. The feedback arrived at is objectives as the responses are given

perspective on the skills, attributes and other job relevant characteristics and thus helps to
build a richer, more complete and accurate picture than could be obtained from any single
source.
