IS service performance: self-perceptions and user perceptions

User evaluation of the quality of an information system (IS) and its service is often a major factor in the performance evaluation of the IS staff.

Three hundred and sixty degree evaluation techniques strive to avoid unjustified actions by eliciting feedback from multiple stakeholders to calibrate expectations more effectively and set the most appropriate future goals. Evidence from a survey of 193 IS users and IS staff members clarified the helpfulness of the principles in 360° feedback with regard to IS staff performance.
