Radical Candor Workshop • WorkshopBank
The group will learn the core ideas, see where they tend to sit on the Radical Candor grid, and then spend most of the time practising real conversations so they leave with clear next steps they can use straight away.
How to run it
- Managers who want to improve one to one conversations
- Team leaders who need to address performance and behaviour
- HR and People professionals who support managers
- Individual contributors who want to give peers clearer feedback
- Project leads who work with cross functional teams
- This practical workshop helps people give and receive better feedback using the Radical Candor approach.
- The group will learn the core ideas, see where they tend to sit on the Radical Candor grid, and then spend most of the time practising real conversations so they leave with clear next steps they can use straight away.
- Many teams avoid honest feedback or give it in a clumsy way that harms trust.
- They build skill and confidence, so that back at work they can care personally and challenge directly in a way that improves performance and relationships.
