## [Susan Cain - How to lead introverts](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbhctpQVyJk)
15+
16+
- You won't be able to lead introverts if you don't under who they are, what their needs are?
17+
- There is no one size fits all strategy
18+
- Figure out the team, where each member complements each other and then you are going to be greater
19+
than the sum of your parts

## How to give useful feedback
49+
50+
- [Kim Scott - How to give useful feedback](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUJHgryZ1Hs)
51+
- Think of feedback more as **guidance**
52+
- Good stuff people do => Do more of it => Praise
53+
- Bad stuff people do => Stop doing it => Criticism
54+
- Give guidance with a spirit of being Humble, helpful
55+
- Trying to help the person solve/fix a problem
56+
- You want to give guidance immediately and in-person
57+
- Feedback is measured **not at your mouth** but at the **other persons ear**
58+
- You need to see how the other person is reacting to the feedback
59+
- > You want to give praise in public and criticism in private
60+
- Praise is specific and sincere
61+
- Criticism is Kind and clear
62+
- Give praise/criticism about a persons behavior, You don't want to make it about their
63+
personality
64+
- Give a little criticism and lot of praise every single week
65+
66+

## [Kim Scott - Care personally. Challenge directly](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWaJ2pkDiWU)
76+
77+
- Radical candor - Care personally + Challenge directly
78+
- Correct style ✅, Impromptu feedback delivered in person with compassion
79+
- Just say what you think
80+
- Obnoxious aggression - Challenge directly + Don't show that you care
81+
- You are just being a jerk
82+
- Ruinous empathy - Care personally + Don't challenge directly
83+
- Trying to be nice, but not help people improve
84+
- Manipulative insincerity - Don't care personally + Don't challenge directly
85+
- Political, passive aggressive, backstabbing behavior
86+
- Don't judge someone, but try to move to radical candor
87+
