In this engaging session, attendees explore the Radical Candor framework-caring personally while challenging directly-to deliver feedback that builds trust and drives growth. Through framework guidance and industry specific examples, participants will identify their feedback styles, learn how to give and receive authentic feedback, and how to avoid common pitfalls. Attendees will leave with immediately implementable tools to foster a culture of honest, compassionate communication and feedback that builds stronger team relationships .
