Event Overview
An exciting twist on the Leadership Ecosystem panel format, this session involves a conversation about how the panel members, all from the same leadership team at the same institution, use Radical Candor in their roles. Join the CIO, Deputy CIO, and the Senior Director for Enterprise applications for Carnegie Mellon University as they explore the benefits, limitations, windfalls, and pitfalls of radical Candor in the IT arena and beyond.

Radical Candor, by Kim Scott, is an often touted tool for fostering clear communication, giving and receiving constructive feedback, and an excellent tool for cutting through the chaff and getting right to the crucial conversations. Hear how the panelists use it to avoid ruinous empathy and hurt feelings when the tough things need to be said.

Speakers:
David Baisley - Deputy Chief Information Officer – Carnegie Mellon University
Amy Coutu – Senior Director, Enterprise Applications – Carnegie Mellon University
Stan Waddell, Ph.D. - Chief Information Officer – Carnegie Mellon University
