    Legendary Author Kim Scott tells it like it is with Radical Candor sprinkled with Radical Respect
    Apr 27 2024
    Come out of denial, laugh at yourself, get radically candid with YOU. Enjoy best selling author Kim Scott. Debuting Radical Respect, the prequel to the best selling, brilliant book Radical Candor.

    Kim is a consummate team buiilder, collaborator and has successfully operationalized radical candor through out the client base of Just Work, a company co-founded by Jason Rosoff. She was a member of the faculty at Apple University and before that, led AdSense, YouTube, and DoubleClick teams at Google.

    Hear about what gets in the way of radical respect? Bias, Prejudice and Bullying are the big three behaviors.

    Boil it down to bias is unconscience, prejudice is meaning it, and bullying is just being mean regardless of conscious or unconsciousness.

    Listen to the story of Kim's dog. It's the memorable tale that differentiates between being clear versus being mean.

    Buy all of Kim's books, but most importantly, be radically respectful with radical candor.
