Clear is kind
Season 1 Episode 17
I got caught up in an incredible documentary this weekend, and while I loved it and learnt a lot and was super impressed one thing stood out. It was painful to watch when feedback and messaging being delivered were neither clear or direct.
They did care personally and this is one aspect of the Radical Candor model - the other part is to challenge directly. What was happening in the show reminded me of the feedback sandwich - a tool - that admittedly 30 years ago was being taught and used as a way to give feedback.
This episode leans heavily on the work of Kim Scott and the team at Radical Candor. Links to the places I’ve specifically quoted from and used to build this episode are all below.
So we cover:-
The 6 reasons why the feedback sandwich doesn’t work.
What to do instead and what this can look like in practice.
Share the value of sitting with the discomfort of critical feedback.
Why appreciative feedback is part of this equation.
