A system and method for evaluating employees and, more particularly to a targeted system and method incorporating actionable feedback. Rather than rating every item and competency in the survey, the respondents and self-evaluators only chose one to three strong competencies and one to three weak competencies. Items beneath those two to six chosen competencies are in turn selected according to their support of the strength or contribution to the weakness, but not according to a rating scale. Respondents are asked to indicate their willingness to support the subject in his/her subsequent endeavors to leverage strengths and improve developmental areas.
