In the workplace, respect and candor go hand in hand. If you’re ready to build a culture of transparency, humanity, and collaboration, don’t miss this conversation with Kim Scott, CEO coach and author of Radical Respect and Radical Candor. In this episode, you’ll learn some practical tips for embracing individuality over conformity while promoting collaboration over coercion. TAKEAWAYS A need for more awareness and action regarding the intersectionality of race and leadership in the workplace, in part, prompted Kim Scott to write Radical Respect. All people are deserving of respect and dignity based on their humanity. Radical Respect advocates for a culture that prioritizes collaboration and individuality.  Bias, prejudice, and bullying can undermine respect in the workplace and must be addressed individually to mitigate their impact. If we want to foster a respectful workplace, we must be persistent and patient in efforts to change and improve. When we witness disrespect around us, we can and must intervene to support those targeted in various ways. 00:00 Welcome and Sponsor Shoutout 00:37 Introducing Kim Scott and Radical Respect 02:44 The Genesis of Radical Respect 12:16 The Framework for Success with Radical Respect 14:07 Understanding and Addressing Bias, Prejudice, and Bullying 19:47 Navigating Prejudice and Bullying: Strategies and Insights 22:10 Empowering the Quiet Ones: Enhancing Collaboration in Teams 26:17 Designing Fair Management Systems: Checks, Balances, and Bias Busting 34:45 Personal Reflections and the Power of Radical Respect 36:31 Closing Thoughts: Encouraging Action and Intervention GUEST AT A GLANCE Kim Scott, author of Radical Respect: How to Work Together Better and Radical Candor: Be a Kick-Ass Boss Without Losing Your Humanity, is the Co-Founder of the company Radical Candor.
