Radical Respect

Beautifully written, wise, and practical, Radical Respect shows how organizations that respect individuality and optimize for collaboration are more successful and joyful places to work. We can create cultures where everyone does the best work of their lives and enjoys working together. Scott offers a simple framework that helps us identify what gets in the way, along with practical, tangible tips for how to get back on track. No matter your role, this is the essential guide for creating a workplace where you and those around you can thrive.

Radical Candor

A practical guide for those bewildered or exhausted by management, written for bosses and those who manage bosses. Drawing on years of first-hand experience, Radical Candor shows you how to be successful while retaining your integrity and humanity. From Kim Scott, former manager at Google and Apple, and CEO coach to Silicon Valley, this book will help you build, lead, and inspire teams to do their best work.

If you don't have anything nice to say, then don't say anything at all . . . right? While this advice may work at home, as Kim Scott has seen firsthand, it is a disaster when adopted by managers in the workplace. 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 inspires teams to work better together by embracing fierce conversations.

Radical Candor is the sweet spot between managers who are obnoxiously aggressive on one side and ruinously empathetic on the other. It is about providing guidance, which involves a mix of praise and criticism—delivered to produce better results and help your employees develop their skills and increase success. Great bosses have strong relationships with their employees, and Scott has identified three simple principles for building better relationships:

1. Make it personal
2. Get stuff done
3. Understand why it matters

Radical Candor is the perfect handbook for those looking to find meaning in their job and create an environment where people love both their work and their colleagues, motivated to strive for greater success. If you manage people—whether it be 1 person or 1,000—you need Radical Candor. Now!

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.
