Radically candid conversations to support DEI

Radically candid communication is a valuable tool to manage challenging conversations, including those related to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). The approach—developed by author and impact expert Kim Scott—is centered on caring deeply and challenging directly. In this webinar, explore the radical candor model and how you can use it to create direct, authentic communication in your organization. Learn how to align this approach with other strategies to bring successful, sustainable communication to your workplace. 

This session originally was presented at AVMA’s 2022 Veterinary Leadership Conference.

Participants can expect to learn about:
