Ever heard of ‘radical candor’ ?How comfortable are you in life ? – how much do you like your workplace and are you passionate about the work and the place, the colleagues, the organisation and more ! – to some of us with experience in PSU as also in Private company [not necessarily as an employee – as an associate, business coordinate, service provider] – not all had problems, though some found difficulty in adjusting to changed environ .. .. the first thing bamboozling was use of ‘jargons’ – and the way people coexisted.In a strict hierarchy, things are often stereo-typed with clarity in role and expectations Read this piece in Forbes : To illustrate radical candor in action, Scott shared story about a time her boss criticized her. “I had just joined Google and gave a presentation to the founders and the CEO about how the AdSense business was doing. I walked in feeling a little nervous, but happily the business was on fire. When we told Larry, Sergey and Eric how many publishers we had added over the previous months, Eric almost fell off his chair and asked what resources they could give us to help continue this amazing success. So... I sort of felt like the meeting went okay.”But after the meeting, Scott’s boss, Sheryl Sandberg, suggested they take a walk together. She talked about the things she’d liked about the presentation and how impressed she was with the success the team was having — yet Scott could feel a “but” coming. “Finally she said, ‘But you said um a lot.’ And I thought, ‘Oh, no big deal. I know, I do that. But who cared if I said um when I had the tiger by the tail?’”
