Featuring a new preface, afterword and Radically Candid Performance
Review Bonus Chapter, the fully revised & updated edition of
Radical Candor is packed with even more guidance to help you
improve your relationships at work. 'Reading Radical Candor will
help you build, lead, and inspire teams to do the best work of
their lives.' - Sheryl Sandberg, author of Lean In. If you don't
have anything nice to say then don't say anything at all . . .
right? While this advice may work for home life, as Kim Scott has
seen first hand, it is a disaster when adopted by managers in the
work place. Scott earned her stripes as a highly successful manager
at Google before moving to Apple where she developed a class on
optimal management. Radical Candor draws directly on her
experiences at these cutting edge companies to reveal a new
approach to effective management that delivers huge success by
inspiring teams to work better together by embracing fierce
conversations. Radical Candor is the sweet spot between managers
who are obnoxiously aggressive on the one side and ruinously
empathetic on the other. It is about providing guidance, which
involves a mix of praise as well as criticism - delivered to
produce better results and help your employees develop their skills
and increase success. Great bosses have a strong relationship with
their employees, and Scott has identified three simple principles
for building better relationships with your employees: make it
personal, get stuff done, and understand why it matters. Radical
Candor offers a guide to those bewildered or exhausted by
management, written for bosses and those who manage bosses. Drawing
on years of first-hand experience, and distilled clearly to give
practical advice to the reader, Radical Candor shows you how to be
successful while retaining your integrity and humanity. Radical
Candor is the perfect handbook for those who are looking to find
meaning in their job and create an environment where people love
both their work and their colleagues, and are motivated to strive
to ever greater success.

Great basic model for mangers
Tue, 18 Oct 2022 | Review
by: Michael W.
Ms. Scott's basic model is fantastic and I certainly think will benefit all managers. My reservations are that she could have said what she needed to say in half the length of the book. Further, I take issue with some of her terminology. For example, why call it "Radical Candor" when by her own admission she means "Compassionate Candor"? Still, I would recommend this book to anyone in the workplace in a position of leadership.
