See Your Leaders Clearly—Without the Noise
Psybil 360 transforms the traditional multirater review into a precise leadership diagnostic.
Developed by organizational and clinical psychologists and powered by behavioral science, it delivers feedback you can trust and insights you can act on.
Most 360 reviews promise perspective, yet deliver confusion. Psybil 360 replaces subjective impressions with data-driven clarity—capturing how leaders truly influence performance, culture, and strategy. With smarter design, cleaner data, and seamless delivery, it turns feedback into an advantage rather than a chore.
The point here is that the pain point is that 360s have a flaw and we solve it, not that we need a better understanding of people. Thoughts?
Why Traditional 360s Fall Short
Traditional survey-based multirater tools were built as a shortcut to gathering feedback in systems where direct feedback was discouraged, not decision-making. Raters are asked to translate complex behaviors into simple numbers. The potential for bias is overlooked, and the results produced are too vague to guide change.
The outcome? Noise instead of insight. Raters interpret scales differently. Scores cluster in the middle. Reports get read once and forgotten.
Psybil 360 was engineered from the ground up to solve these problems. Every item is anchored in observable behavior, scored through an algorithm that distinguishes meaningful differences, and is interpreted through measures such as rater agreement—so leaders and organizations finally get feedback that reflects reality.
This is critical to overcome standard 360 shortcomings
The Psybil 360 Difference
Psybil 360 was designed to separate real performance signals from feedback noise. Each component reflects years of research, testing, and refinement:
Behavioral Anchors That Reduce Error Noise
Each item describes observable behaviors to minimize bias and subjectivity.
Algorithmic Scoring for Precision
Ratings are processed through an algorithm that captures subtle differences between responses.
Streamlined Rater Experience
Raters complete reviews quickly and intuitively, with a mobile-friendly interface that boosts participation.
Rater Agreement Analytics
Psybil 360 calculates levels of agreement and dissent among raters, revealing perception gaps and alignment.
Balanced Factors for a Complete Picture
Each scale integrates proactive behaviors and the absence of counterproductive ones.
Validated, Normed Data
Items are normed on over a thousand ratings, providing reliable, comparative benchmarks.
The result is feedback that’s actionable, credible, and aligned with your organization’s strategic priorities.
What is Measured
Psybil 360 draws from two complementary dimensions — Skills and Leadership Factors — to capture both what leaders do and how they do it. Together, they provide a comprehensive view of impact, performance, and potential.
Skills: A configurable list where you choose what is most important.
Skills represent the observable, trainable behaviors that drive day-to-day effectiveness. Each item is anchored in real actions and outcomes, allowing raters to evaluate what they can actually see and experience.
Clients work with Psybil to configure the assessment by choosing the skills that are most relevant.
A few of the key skill domains:
- Strategic Intelligence – Analytical Thinking, Forward and Conceptual Thinking, Managing Complexity, Innovation, Comfort with Uncertainty.
- Execution & Results – Decisiveness, Reliability, Timeliness, Efficiency, Bias to Action.
- Leadership & Management – Empowering and Developing Others, Providing Feedback, Managing Performance, Holding Others Accountable.
- Interpersonal Influence – Communication, Social Intelligence, Conflict Management, Listening, Collaboration.
- Integrity & Self-Awareness – Moral Courage, Humility, Composure, Emotional Regulation, Transparency.
- Systemic & Strategic Orientation – Understanding Organizational Dynamics, Political Savvy, Global Perspective.
- Innovation & Agility – Fostering Change, Experimentation, Early Adoption, Learning from Mistakes.
Each skill can be selected from Psybil’s library of over 100 validated measures, allowing organizations to customize reviews around the capabilities that matter most. If we don’t have it, our skilled team will develop one for you.
Leadership Factors: A comprehensive list of what makes a great leader
Leadership Factors reveal the underlying patterns that explain how a leader uses their skills—how they relate to others, manage themselves, and think systemically.
These deeper dimensions move beyond behavior checklists to capture style, maturity, and the quality of influence.
Core factor categories include:
- Relational: Empathy, social intelligence, and balance between caring and accountability.
- Self-Awareness & Maturity: Composure, openness, and balance while identifying risks such as rigidity or narcissism.
- Integrity: Honesty, moral courage, and consistency between words and actions.
- Systemic Thinking: Ability to see the organization as a whole and anticipate second-order consequences.
- Achievement Orientation: Drive, purpose, perseverance, and focus on long-term impact.
- Commanding Presence: Confidence, clarity, and assertiveness without tipping into aggression or avoidance.
- Boundaries & Differentiation: Self-regulation, independent thought, and grounded decision-making under pressure.
- Conventionality & Agility: Whether a leader thrives through best-practice discipline or innovation and experimentation.
- Interpersonal Balance: Ability to balance empathy with accountability and maintain composure across relationships.
- Execution: Persistence and follow-through contrasted with common derailers like procrastination or over-busyness.
By combining these skill-based and factor-based insights, Psybil 360 provides a multidimensional portrait of leadership, linking observable behavior to the psychological factors that sustain it.
Most 360° or multirater graphs illustrate how effectively an employee or leader performs across a set of behaviors. However, true success is often shaped just as much by toxic behaviors—or the absence of them. In other words, not exhibiting a negative behavior is itself a positive leadership trait.
Psyburst captures both the light and shadow sides of a candidate. As a candidate avoids toxic behaviors, the burst expands; when they actively discourage toxic behaviors in others, it expands even further. The same applies to positive factors: the burst grows as a candidate demonstrates positive behaviors and expands again when they teach or inspire others to do the same.
The result is a clear, intuitive view of the areas where a candidate excels and the areas where they may be limiting their own success.
