Kim Scott is the author of ‘Just Work: Get Sh*t Done Fast and Fair’ and Radical Candor: How to Get What You Want By Saying What you Mean’. Kim was a CEO coach at Dropbox, Qualtrics and Twitter plus a faculty member at Apple University and before that led AdSense, YouTube, and DoubleClick teams at Google. Kim joins Newton’s Rosanne Furniss to discuss why leaders shouldn’t have to choose between being direct and being compassionate. The phrase ‘radical candour’ can inspire fear at first hearing, with many concerned that people will use the principle as an excuse to act “like a jerk”, as Kim says. But in reality, it’s a principle that should be used as a guiding compass, allowing you to hit the sweet spot between caring personally and challenging directly. In this episode, Kim explains how to introduce radical candour as a navigational framework into your organisation; how to create a shared vocabulary so that people are comfortable differentiating between radical candour and obnoxious aggression; the struggles around being radically candid when working remotely; and how radical candour can help you and your team bring your whole selves to work. Newton is an implementation-focussed consultancy with a difference, brimming with people who have a passion for cracking really tough challenges.
