feedback Information or opinions about the performance of a product, system, intervention (e.g. a
management development or training program), or employee. Important sources of feedback include clients and customers, users of a product or system, and an employee's supervisors or fellow workers. Regular and reliable feedback is essential to
employee evaluation and
performance appraisal, and its absence may be detrimental to
job satisfaction (see
core job characteristics). Feedback also plays a key role in modern management philosophies of
continuous improvement, such as
total quality management. See
multisource feedback.
