Video Tip: Radically Candid Praise is Immediate

Radically Candid praise is immediate. You'll remember the specifics much better when you see something great and point it out right away.
At Candor, Inc. we of course think great feedback is extremely important, and so in addition to trying to help others improve their feedback, as a company we're internally focused everyday on building a culture of great feedback, a culture of Radical Candor. We give feedback frequently and think about how it is received, both through in person conversations, like in one of our previous videos, and with the Candor Gauge.

In our video this week, Kim and Russ give tips about why immediate praise is important and how to do it, and they share an example of immediate praise here at Candor:
