Radical Candor - Improve your in person, impromptu feedback
One of the biggest problems is that we don’t give enough in person, impromptu feedback. It can feel patronizing to give praise and giving criticism can feel mean. Even when people do give feedback, they are often not as clear or helpful as they intend to be. This video explains a simple framework called ‘Radical Candor’ to help you develop a culture of good feedback. The presenters highlight the significance of delivering constructive impromptu feedback in the workplace and introduce the concept as a framework to foster a culture of effective feedback. They stress that providing feedback can be difficult due to professional training and the fear of coming across as harsh or insensitive. Sharing a personal story about insincere apologies, they advocate for expressing one's thoughts with care and directness. The speakers explain that Radical Candor involves both challenging others directly while caring about their feelings, providing instances demonstrating its potential to enhance relationships and work outcomes.
