Lead Read Repeat Book Club: Radical Candor
Leadership comes in many forms, we can be leaders of self, leaders of teams, or leaders of organizations. Leadership skills may come more naturally to some and more difficult to others, but there is always an opportunity for additional development. In this book club we will focus on books to expand our minds, learn something new and become better leaders. Whatever your leadership position, this book club will focus on impacting your relationships with others. This book club will meet 4 times a year.
Our May book is Radical Candor by Kim Scott.
From the jacket: "The idea is simple: You don't have to choose between being a pushover and a jerk. Using Radical Candor - avoiding the perils of Obnoxious Aggression, Manipulative Insincerity, and Ruinous Empathy - you can be kind and clear at the same time.
Kim Scott was a highly successful leader at Google before decamping to Apple, where she developed and taught a management class. Since the original publication of Radical Candor in 2017, Scott has earned international fame with her vital approach to effective leadership and co-founded the Radical Candor executive education company, which helps companies put the book's philosophy into practice.
Radical Candor is about caring personally and challenging directly, about soliciting criticism to improve your leadership and also providing guidance that helps others grow. It focuses on praise but doesn't shy away from criticism - to help you love your work and the people you work with."
