Radical Candor In 6 Minutes
Learn the basics of Radical Candor in six minutes. Obnoxious Aggression is what happens when you challenge someone directly, but don’t care about them personally. Manipulative Insincerity is praise that is non-specific and insincere or criticism that is neither clear nor kind. Ruinous Empathy is “nice” but ultimately unhelpful or even damaging. Radical Candor is criticism that is kind and clear, and praise that is specific and sincere.

Speaking of candor
Every day people tell us that learning to Care Personally and Challenge Directly has made their teams happier and more productive.
“Radical Candor is having conversations and providing feedback in a way that demonstrates you care about someone, even if the content might be difficult for the other person to hear. It’s a way of providing challenge, without harming the relationship, because we do need to say hard things. Radical Candor is very much a foundational skill to create psychological safety. Highly recommend the book and the session (Growth Faculty Event)!”
“Radical Candor has had a significant impact on our team. It’s encouraged our managers to step outside of their comfort zones, engage in healthy debates and think about feedback in a different light. It’s helped us open all lines of communication between managers and direct reports, and implementing the concepts in Radical Candor has been a positive experience for everyone.”
“Heartfelt thanks for an incredible Radical Candor workshop this morning. Your guidance created a safe and open space for us to share our stories, reminding us of the power and importance of genuine connection. We developed essential skills and a common language for giving feedback, focused listening, and skillfully giving praise. This experience brought us even closer as a community dedicated to serving and caring for our students and each other with deep authenticity.”
"At Futuri, we embrace the principles of Kim Scott’s Radical Candor as a core part of our culture. This approach helps us push boundaries, stay innovative, and ensure that even the toughest feedback is delivered in a way that strengthens relationships and drives performance. It’s how we maintain high standards and keep our teams aligned on a path to success.”
“By fostering a culture of impromptu feedback in our team, we’ve been able to move even faster as an agile company. We get to the root of issues faster, but we also are able to mentor much more effectively and take mistakes as an opportunity to learn and teach.”
“When we discovered Kim Scott’s groundbreaking concept of ‘Radical Candor’, it revolutionized our approach to team cohesion and efficacy. This approach is all about creating authentic spaces for feedback and open communication. Radical Candor encourages leaders to foster an environment where honest feedback thrives, including feedback directed at the leaders themselves.”

I went from being uncertain about my future at Heitman to now being confident that I can fulfill my career goals."
“The AsiaPacific leadership team used this workshop to assess and improve how they communicate to their teams and each other, integrating learnings from the Indian, Singaporean, and Australian cultures while together.
