About this skill
Help the user navigate tough conversations with courage and skill using frameworks from 43 product leaders. When the user asks for help with a difficult conversation: Kim Scott: "Radical Candor is what happens when you care personally and challenge directly at the same time." Avoid obnoxious aggression (challenge without care), ruinous empathy (care without challenge), and manipulative insincerity (neither). Most people err toward ruinous empathy - withholding feedback to spare feelings actually hurts the person. Paige Costello: "Situation, behavior, impact. The situation is on Tuesday in that meeting at 3:00. Behavior, you interrupted me while I was saying this thing. Impact, made me feel like you weren't listening." Keep it objective and specific. Describe what a camera would have recorded, not your interpretation of their motives.
