Dear Rachel:
I am sorry for I could not get your point in the first go.
Well, it is always advisable to have the appraisals multisourced but again it depends on PA history in your organisation. If it had been a traditional one then it will be difficult for the appraisees to take/accept the new multi-sourced system. One needs to be very careful at implementing it. Every appraisee should be educated about it and made sure that he/she is convinced.
Another advice would be increase the sources gradually rather than at one go. For eg; you may include peers to start with and then gradually the subordinates and then customers etc.,
The appraisee should be in a proactive mood to take the feedback from various sources. It should be taken in the right spirit else it may harm the whole mind set of the appraisee.
Hope this is of some help to you.
