Now a cultural touchstone, the concept has come to be applied to a wide range of human relationships. 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. Radically Candid relationships with team members enable bosses to fulfill their three core responsibilities: 1. Create a culture of Compassionate Candor 2. Build a cohesive team 3. Achieve results collaboratively

إنه لفي هذه الحياة الحلوة المُرة القاسية اللينة، التي يحبّها أحيانا كأشدّ ما يكون الحب، ويضيق بها أحيانا أخرى كأشدّ ما يكون الضيق، وإذا الحياةُ تبتسم له فجأة في يوم من أيام الربيع ابتسامةً تغيّر حياته كلها تغييرًا. وإذا هو لا يعرف الوَحدة ولا يجد الوحشةَ حين يخلو إلى نفسه إذا أظلم الليل، وكيف تجد الوَحدةُ أو الوحشةُ إلى نفسه سبيلًا، وكيف تبلغه تلك الخواطرُ التي كانت تؤذيه وتضنيه وتؤرّق ليله، وفي نفسه صوتٌ عذبٌ رفيق يشيع فيه البرّ والحنان، ويقرأ عليه هذا الأثر أو ذاك من روائع الأدب الفرنسي القديم؟". طه حسين من خلال هذه السلسلة، نستحضر الأعمال الإبداعية والتاريخية والدراسات النقدية لعميد الأدب العربي - الدكتور طه حسين
