October 2018 – radical openness

"In the book Radical openness, the author shares her experiences on how to build your own ‘radically open’ leadership and spread it further. I want to improve my openness (without hurting others in the process) – so I’m diving into her book,” says Jiří Rozvařil, a member of the Red Button network.

Leading is challenging for everyone. You appreciate your team’s dedication but also see their shortcomings. What next? Confrontation is uncomfortable for everyone, and you don’t want to hurt or offend anyone. Yet, you must address mistakes – it’s your responsibility. So how do you give colleagues criticism without upsetting them? How do you be a strong leader without becoming harsh?

Radical openness is a way to provide valuable feedback without harming yourself or others. Learn it, and it will advance not only you but your entire team!
