Welcome to the show, I'm Jordan Harbinger.

As always, I'm here with my producer, Jason DeFilippo.

Maybe you've heard of that concept called radical honesty, where you basically tell people

what you're thinking no matter what.

You make no apologies, and then you say you're being authentic even though everyone just

thinks you're an A-hole.

Well, today, Kim Scott, author of Radical Candor, helps us find a little balance here,

especially in the workplace.

Today, we'll hear how Kim found out what her boss really thought of her and her work

when he accidentally c-seed her on an email to her colleagues, all of them, by the way.

Of course, her response to this and what she learned is what can help us in our own careers

will also learn why most of us actually resist being honest with others around us, and

why this is actually a disservice to the company and to that person and ourselves.

Of course, we'll also find out how we can be radically candid with people who are not only

our subordinates, but also those who might be above us in the hierarchy.

That's even more important, I think.

The formula and techniques we'll hear about today will help us view honesty, candor,

and empathy in a totally different way, and I think you'll find it extremely useful.

If you want to learn how I've created such an amazing network of people that appear

on the show that offer opportunity to our life, to our business, six minute networking

is where I've catalogued all that.

It's a free course, there's no credit card required.
