Radical Candor [Paperback] [Jan 01, 2018] KIM SCOTT Paperback – International Edition, January 1, 2018

So I bought this book thinking I was buying “Fierce Conversations”. Turns out I was buying the wrong book - which turned out to be the best mistake I ever made because this book is way way better! This is hands down one of the best books I have read on leadership. The author takes a straight shooter, no nonsense, no BS, no pontificating approach to how to be a kick a$$ Manager! It’s great for leaders of all levels and walks through some foundational things (in a no nonsense way that doesn’t make you feel stupid) and then gets into how to actually establish trust with your direct reports. As in “say this” and “do this”. It is a very practical guidebook. I used an entire highlighter on every nugget I found - some pages are entirely highlighted!I will recommend this book to anyone I know. It is by far the most practical advice on getting things done, without leaving bodies in your wake.

Excellent book if you are new to leadership or just work to improve as being a leader. Kim provides lots of useful guidance on leading and demonstrates these lesson through actual life experiences! This book is easy to understand and easy to follow I would highly recommend it!

Wish I understood this concept earlier in my management career!

This book is really candid about the author's experiences and uses them to demonstrate how to apply some tried and true practices for management. Highly recommend if you manage a group of employees.

Tim, thank you for the handwritten note you jotted down on the wrapper! Also, you delivered quicker than prime! Super excited to read this book! Do you have a direct link to your shop?

Helps professionals how to share feedback but tactfully so that is mutually beneficial instead of supressing the information and having side effects later.

Speak up. Clear is kind. Unclear is unkind. Radical candor exposes the dangers of remaining silent and not giving needed feedback. We all need to learn to provide feedback with caring.
