Wait, are we sure it’s not peer review? Seems like a close call.

Could it be A? Performance appraisal seems related, but I’m not confident it includes input from everyone like multirater feedback does.

Okay, let me break this down. The question is asking about a process that involves input from multiple sources - coworkers, subordinates, and superiors. That sounds like it could be peer review or multirater feedback. I'm leaning towards multirater feedback, but I'll double-check the definitions just to be sure.

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. I know performance appraisal involves feedback from managers, but I'm not sure if that's the same as what the question is asking. I'll have to think this through carefully.
