Leadership 360

Discover how others experience your leadership

Honest feedback, meaningful insight, and a clear path for growth.

Leadership 360 helps you understand how others experience your leadership, highlighting your strengths and the areas where you have room to grow.

By comparing your own perspective with feedback from your leadership team, other ministry leaders and your congregation, you can develop greater empathy, confidence and effectiveness as a leader.

  • How do you accurately evaluate your leadership impact?
  • What is it really like to be led by you?
  • Where are the gaps in your leadership that need your focus?

What it measures

Seven areas of leadership and ministry

Our survey was purpose-built for people in ministry. Respondents answer across seven areas, so the picture is rounded rather than narrow.

  • 1Wise Living
  • 2Ministry
  • 3Strategic and Innovative Thinking
  • 4Leadership & Teamwork
  • 5Operational Management
  • 6People Management
  • 7Interpersonal Skills

Your results are read against benchmarks from people in ministry, so you can see what is typical in a ministry setting — and what genuinely stands out in your own feedback. Written comments are read alongside the scores to explain the numbers.

Who gives the feedback

Four groups who see you in ministry

You invite the people who know your ministry first-hand, across four groups. Having several voices in each group is what makes the feedback useful — and what keeps individual responses confidential.

Ministry Governors

Those with oversight of your ministry — elders, wardens, mentors, denominational or board leaders.

Team Members

The staff and volunteers who serve alongside you and see your leadership week to week.

Ministry Members

The people you pastor and minister to — congregation members, youth parents, those in your pastoral care.

Peers and Others

People who know you in ministry, including peers and, where appropriate, your spouse.

Four to eight respondents in each group is the ideal. It protects confidentiality and gives a fair picture; fewer than four in a group makes the feedback unreliable. If your role sits outside a congregation — chaplaincy, operations or a staff team — mention it when you enquire and we will talk through who should give you feedback.

How it works

About five weeks, start to finish

We administer the survey for you and stay with you through to the debrief, so the process is straightforward from your side.

  1. Step 1 Briefing call

    We talk through your role, who you will invite, and how the process will run from here.

  2. Weeks 1–2 Invite your respondents

    We give you a ready-to-send invitation email. You send it to your respondents so they know the feedback is coming.

  3. Week 3 Add their details

    You enter your respondents’ email addresses into the survey portal, which stays open for a week.

  4. Weeks 4–5 The survey runs

    Respondents complete the confidential online survey — about 30 minutes each. It closes after 10–14 days, including two weekends.

  5. After close Report and debrief

    Your report is prepared and your consultant walks you through it in a private debrief, and you leave with priorities to take further.

What you receive

Confidential feedback, and someone to help you read it

$605

per person, inclusive of GST — everything listed below is included.

Every 360 includes:

  • A briefing call with a Partners in Ministry consultant
  • Administration and analysis of your survey
  • A confidential 90-minute feedback session with your consultant
  • Your full written report to keep and return to
  • Invitation templates and respondent guidance, prepared for you

Most suited to leaders who have been in their role for at least 18 months to three years, where those around you have seen enough of your leadership to give meaningful feedback. If cost is a barrier for you or your church, please get in touch — we would rather talk it through than have you miss out.

How we use it

A development tool, not a performance review

In corporate settings a 360 is often tied to pay, promotion or performance management. We use it differently. Leadership 360 is a developmental process — a way for people in ministry, who rarely receive structured feedback, to hear honest, collated input about their strengths and their growth areas.

The report belongs to you. You decide what you share, and with whom. Our commitment is always this: the process is for the person.
