Author Kim Scott has experienced her fair share of bias, prejudice, and bullying firsthand. Early in her career, her boss even instructed her to wear tighter pants and a revealing shirt to work. This continued injustice prompted her to write Radical Respect, where she provides a roadmap to challenge these issues head-on to create safer workplaces for all.
Scott offers a "taxonomy" to understand the three big problems frequently experienced at work: bias, prejudice, and bullying. She then breaks down Radical Respect in the form of a two-by-two and dives into what each of the four quadrants means. Woven throughout are deeply personal stories recounted by Ernest Adams, the head of DEI at Ford Motor Company, and Scott herself.
Leaders have a responsibility to embed fair practices into their management systems to create safe spaces for all. This chapter explores ways to do so, including insights from Alan Eustace, former VP of Knowledge at Google, and Scott's personal experiences.
When power is layered onto the three big problems, much bigger problems arise. Scott explores the issues this dynamic creates and offers actionable ways to address them.
When we have been harmed, we can rectify the situation without blowing up our careers. Scott walks through each option while providing level-headed guidance along the way.
Words and actions matter. Now that we can identify the big problems, have ways to address them, and know our options if all else fails, we have the toolkit we need to enter into a new era of safe work.
