A revised edition of a cultural phenomenon that transformed workplaces globally is now available, featuring a new foreword, afterword, FAQ, and performance review. From an early age, we learn to avoid saying anything negative, but as managers, it's essential to communicate openly. The author, a former executive at Google and Apple, developed a class on effective management, leading to her innovative approach known as Radical Candor. This concept revolves around two key principles: Caring Personally and Challenging Directly. When you challenge without care, it leads to obnoxious aggression; caring without challenging results in ruinous empathy; and failing to do either leads to manipulative insincerity. This straightforward framework aids in fostering better workplace relationships and fulfilling a leader's core responsibilities: cultivating a feedback culture, building a cohesive team, and achieving meaningful results. The book serves as a practical guide for those feeling overwhelmed by management, offering actionable insights for bosses and those managing bosses. It emphasizes the importance of maintaining humanity in leadership, finding purpose in one's role, and creating an environment where employees enjoy their work and colleagues.
