Radical Candor

Be a Kick-Ass Boss Without Losing Your Humanity

Scott argues that the best bosses care about people personally and still tell them the truth. The book shows how to give and ask for honest feedback without being harsh.

Three big ideas

  1. Care and challengeRadical candor means caring personally while challenging directly, at the same time.
  2. Ask for feedback firstLeaders should invite criticism of themselves before giving it to others.
  3. Praise and criticise in timeFeedback works best when it's specific, sincere and given soon after the moment.
