Radical Respect

How to be respectful and respected at work—from the author of the revolutionary bestseller Radical Candor

We CAN create cultures where everyone does the best work of their lives and enjoys working together. Radical Respect offers a simple framework that helps us identify what gets in the way of that —and practical, tactical tips for how to get back on track. Candid stories from Scott’s career make it a memorable read.

Previously published as Just Work and now substantially revised and updated, Radical Respect starts from a simple point of departure: organizations that optimize for collaboration and honor everyone’s individuality are more successful, joyful places to work.

What moves us away from Radical Respect? Scott offers a “toxonomy” that breaks down a problem that often feels monolithic into its component parts. Once we break a problem down, we can more easily identify solutions.

No matter what your role is, this is the essential guide for helping to create the kind of workplace where you and those around you can thrive.
