Facts About Profile Feedback

Its focus is on development.

It acts like a 4-way mirror.

Feedback is anonymous, except from boss.

It measures “perceptions,” but not necessarily “truth.”

It is comprehensive and specific.

It provides normative comparisons.

It gives you responsibility for your own development.


Confidentiality of the Process Respondents’ names are not associated with the

questionnaire.

Paper questionnaires (answer sheets) are mailed directly to PDI for processing.

Online questionnaires are completed on PDI’s secure website.

Paper feedback reports are sealed.

Respondent feedback is anonymous, except for the boss.

The feedback report is for development purposes only.

The participant decides how much of the report to share.
