# Continuous Feedback in Bob

Peer feedback is a core contributor to our Performance Review Cycle, but instead of doing it during a review cycle, each Todoister is directly responsible for gathering feedback on their work, directly via Bob. [Click here to see how this work](https://handbook.todoist.net/doc/performance-review-cycle-guide-mVoBZlhjJK?q=performance%20review%20cycle#h-peer-feedback). 


[Bob’s Feedback feature](https://app.hibob.com/continuous-feedback/) lets you share ongoing peer, manager, squad-related and BAU-related feedback, in alignment with our [Feedback Compass](/doc/9db9b5a8-c56e-41fc-8926-38c6d89380d2), anytime it’s relevant. It also enables you to request feedback from anyone when you’re seeking feedback within a particular context.

By using Bob as a repository for your feedback, you’ll be able to more easily track and leverage ongoing feedback as part of your development, give your manager visibility into where you’re having an impact and where they can coach and enable you, and synthesize it into the various performance review forms.

Heads and Leads have access to the feedback of their direct and indirect reports. A follow up 1:1 discussion about the feedback (positive and constructive) is a great way to acknowledge the feedback, celebrate it if positive and also evaluate if the Todoister requires any further support or enablement relating to constructive feedback. It is also important to review the feedback in the lead up to performance review cycles, considering its usually given between performance review cycles.

### Navigating the feedback dashboard

There are 3 views you'll find within the dashboard:

* **Received** - feedback others have given you. As you gather feedback, you'll find a Key Takeaways panel that produces an AI summary to highlights your strengths and areas for improvement
* **You've given** - all feedback you've sent to others
* **Pending** - open requests in both directions (follow-up proatively via Comms, the other person might not have seen the request). You are accountable for own your development, therefore don’t wait to get feedback.

### For managers: your team's feedback


1. Go to **Bob products (waffle menu) > Talent > Feedback >** [**People’s feedback**](https://app.hibob.com/continuous-feedback/peoples-feedback)
2. You'll see a table of your direct and indirect reports
3. Click a person's row to see feedback they've received (in the **Received** tab) or requests you've sent on their behalf (**Requests you sent**)

You can also request feedback on behalf of a team member from this view using **Give or request feedback**.


:::info
As a manager, you can only see feedback provided to your direct reports, or skip level reports.

:::

### Viewing your feedback

Go to **Bob products > Talent > Feedback > My feedback**.

Use the search, filters, and date range controls to narrow results in any tab.


:::tip
Once you’ve received 3 or more feedback responses, you’ll get access to an AI summary that gives you an overview of strengths, opportunities, and recommended 1:1 topics and goal. Utility will vary, but it’ll be a useful way to get a snapshot of your feedback.
