Radical Candor

Meer over het boek

This revised edition of a bestselling management guide features a new foreword, afterword, FAQ, and performance review. It challenges the conventional wisdom that discourages honest feedback in the workplace. As a former executive at Google and Apple, Kim Scott developed a new approach to effective management known as Radical Candor. This concept emphasizes the importance of caring personally while also challenging directly. When feedback is given without care, it leads to obnoxious aggression; caring without challenging results in ruinous empathy; and failing to do either leads to manipulative insincerity. This framework aims to foster better workplace relationships and fulfill three essential leadership responsibilities: creating a culture of feedback, building cohesive teams, and achieving commendable results. The book serves as a practical guide for those feeling overwhelmed by management, offering actionable insights for both bosses and their teams. It illustrates how managers can succeed while maintaining their humanity, finding meaning in their roles, and cultivating an environment where employees enjoy their work and colleagues.
