#014: Radical Candor with Jason Rosoff

Giving and receiving feedback is one of an entrepreneur’s greatest assets. But many of us fall into the trap of thinking that in order to give effective feedback, you either have to be a jerk or your feedback has to be sugarcoated. This week on System & Soul, we talk with CEO of Radical Candor, Jason Rosoff, to learn about his organization’s work helping businesses navigate this very complex but necessary aspect of communication. The process of giving feedback can be affected by so many factors including power dynamics, human complexity, sexism, and prejudice. Jason helps us understand the inner work that must be done in leaders before clear, kind, effective criticism can be practiced in a constructive way. You can learn more about Radical Candor, buy the book, or check out any of their helpful resources by visiting RadicalCandor.com. This episode is brought to you by Delegate Solutions. Many entrepreneurs are overwhelmed, burnt out, and frustrated because they aren't able to spend enough time on their highest and best work.  They know they need to delegate to an assistant, but they don't want the responsibility of managing one. At Delegate Solutions, we provide leaders with a different approach to admin support, without the hassles of committing to an employee.  We support our clients remotely in as little as 1-2 hours per day all the way through to full-time.  Our systematic approach includes customized delegation coaching to help you figure out what and how best to delegate, coupled with a team of thinkers and doers to continually get those things off your plate. We love to help visionary leaders free up time so they can do more of what they love and have a big impact. Learn more about our delegation support system by visiting www.delegatesolutions.com.
