Description

How should you respond when you notice bias in the workplace? "I" statements offer a lens for understanding, encouraging the person to notice their mistake and learn from your perspective without calling them out. In this episode, Kim and Wesley speak with Russ Laraway, who shares a story about experiencing "mobbing," a form of bullying, when he was in the minority.About Russ: Russ has had a diverse 28 year operational management career. He was a Company Commander in the Marine Corps before starting his first company, Pathfinders. From there, Russ went to the Wharton School, and then onto management roles at Google and Twitter. He then co-founded Candor, Inc., along with best selling author Kim Scott. Over the last several years, Russ served as the Chief People Officer at Qualtrics, and is now the Chief People Officer for the fast-growing venture capital firm, Goodwater Capital, where he is helping Goodwater and its portfolio companies to empower their people to do great work and be totally psyched while doing it. Over his career, Russ has managed 700 person teams and $700M businesses -- facing a vast array of leadership challenges along the way. He's the author of the book When They Win, You Win: Being a Great Manager Is Simpler Than You Think.https://www.whentheywinyouwin.com

What gets in the way of collaborative, respectful work environments? How can we build teams where everyone can love their work--and working together? Those the questions this podcast explores.In Season Three, Kim and Wesley are back. Also, a name change as we move from “Just Work” to “Radical Respect”. As part of the paperback release of Just Work which is coming out in May of 2024, Kim made major revisions to the text based on all the learnings of the last three years. She also decided to change the name of the book from Just Work to Radical Respect (more details in our blogpost).In Season Two, Wesley Faulkner, who has led developer relations and been a community manager at a number of tech companies, joins Kim as co-host. We talk to guests about their experiences with bias, prejudice, bullying, discrimination, harassment, and physical violations in the workplace. By sharing experiences, we help to build community and to help listeners recognize problems they are experiencing at work, and get some ideas about how to handle it.In Season One, Kim Scott, author of Radical Candor and Just Work, and Ernest Adams, an executive from Nike, Danaher, and Ralph Lauren, talk about how to translate ideas from the book Just Work into on-the-ground realities on your team. They read short sections of the book and get real about how to disrupt bias, prejudice and bullying before they disrupt your team. Ernest now leads DEI at The Ford Motor Company.
