Radical Candor

Radical Candor is a communication approach that encourages honest and direct feedback while maintaining empathy and respect for others. It’s about balancing two key elements: caring personally for individuals and challenging them directly. This means being open about what needs improvement or changing, while also showing that you value and respect the person. The goal is to foster a culture where people feel safe to express themselves and receive constructive criticism, ultimately leading to better collaboration and innovation. It's often used in workplaces to enhance relationships and performance.
