Before Radical Candor reshaped how leaders give feedback, it began with a simple idea, that caring personally and challenging directly can coexist.

In this conversation, leadership expert Kim Scott, bestselling author of Radical Candor and Radical Respect, reflects on how honesty, empathy, and courage transform the way we work and lead. She shares the real story behind creating Radical Candor, coaching top CEOs at Dropbox and Qualtrics, and how her experiences at Google and Apple University shaped her approach to management and life.

You'll learn how to give feedback that inspires growth, build teams rooted in respect, and create cultures where truth replaces fear. From her first lessons in Moscow to building global impact in Silicon Valley, Kim reveals why clarity is kindness, and why radical candor is the foundation of lasting trust.

A timeless conversation for founders, creators, and leaders searching for authenticity, courage, and connection in a noisy world.
