Hello, everybody, and welcome to the Radical Canter Podcast.

0:09.7

I'm Kim Scott, co-founder of Radical Cander and Just Worth.

0:14.1

And I'm Jason Roseoff, CEO and co-founder of Radical Cander.

0:17.8

And I'm Amy Sandler, your host for the Radical Cander podcast. On our last episode, we talked

0:23.7

about how to persuade others that the decision you've made is the right decision. Once everyone's

0:29.5

on board, it's now time for action. And this brings us to step six of the get shit done wheel,

1:32.2

on Twitter actually said that the language that I tend to use tends to be violent. I'm not

1:39.0

very good at using non-violent language. And I really thought a lot about this. And I'm trying to do better, to use more

1:46.5

precise metaphor. So when we say execute, we're not talking about obviously beheading people. We're

1:53.3

talking about implementing. We're talking about doing the actual work. And so we felt like implement
