If you like what you read here, there\u2019s plenty more to check out in the guide!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-radical-candor-exercises-what-s-the-best-setting\"><strong>Radical Candor Exercises: What&#8217;s the Best Setting?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While outside-work social events are good ways to use radical candor exercises to open up to your colleagues, learn about one another, and show them that you care about them, they\u2019re not always the best choice. When thinking of planning a social event, keep two things in mind: optional events can feel like a mandatory burden, and you should be very careful around booze.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When social events are organized by management, people can feel forced into taking part in them\u2014this chips away at the \u201cautonomy\u201d that you\u2019re trying to demonstrate in the organization. Radical candor exercises for team-building should not undercut what you&#8217;re trying to do. When organizing an event, remember to <em>read the room. <\/em>Ask yourself if you might be pressuring your employees into a situation that they\u2019re not comfortable with, either implicitly or explicitly. You might feel that a non-mandatory event doesn\u2019t feel like a burden, but keep in mind that employees feel a great deal of social pressure when it comes to events their boss is putting on\u2014they\u2019ll attend out of fear of missing out on an opportunity to show you their commitment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes, the best thing you can do for your team\u2014and what shows them that you\u2019re <em>really<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/how-to-pay-attention\/\">paying attention<\/a> to their needs\u2014is not scheduling an event at all, instead letting them go home. For example, setting up a fun outing to help everyone relax at the end of a 70-hour week is well-intended, but most of your employees would prefer to go home and rest.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Overall, consider that the workday might be a much more valuable time to get to know one another with radical candor exercises. <\/strong>After all, you and your employees spend most of your time together at work, so it makes sense to get to know each other within that context. Additionally, people should be spending their time after work with their other priorities and their self-care, not holding themselves in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/attitude-toward-work\/\">work mindset<\/a> that naturally comes along with socializing with colleagues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-radical-candor-exercises-and-strategies\"><strong>Radical Candor Exercises and Strategies<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your team members share their values or experiences with you, your job as a leader is to stay open to their perspective. This practice of basic respect is at the center of strong <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/career-relationships\/\">work relationships<\/a>. Your \u201cpersonal care\u201d has to extend to everyone, even those who come from a different background, have a different perspective of the world, or have beliefs you don\u2019t understand. If you mandate that people have beliefs or values similar to yours, or that they hide their conflicting beliefs and values before you\u2019re interested in building a relationship with them, your work relationships will be weak, artificial, and void of trust.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond accepting the diverse perspectives of your employees, you can further strengthen your relationships by making a perceptible effort to create a workplace that honors their diverse perspectives. This might look like organizing a workshop on discussing race in the workplace, or a review of exclusive language in your organization&#8217;s written materials.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-use-physical-touch-where-appropriate\"><strong>Use Physical Touch Where Appropriate<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Physical touch is often considered inappropriate in the workplace, but sometimes it can go a long way toward strengthening your relationships by showing that you care personally. Radical candor exercises and bonding can utilize touch where appropriate. If one of your employees experiences a death in the family, or announces that they\u2019re having a baby, a professionally distant handshake won\u2019t demonstrate that you care about them. A hug, on the other hand, certainly would.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, when it comes to physical touch, you have to be attuned to your employees\u2019 needs\u2014<em>ask them<\/em> what they prefer. Don\u2019t make an assumption they might <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/be-uncomfortable\/\">be uncomfortable<\/a> with. Some of your employees will be comfortable with hugging and gladly accept it, but others will prefer not to be hugged. It\u2019s important to find another way to include these employees in expressions of care, such as a reassuring shoulder squeeze, or a note left on their desk. It\u2019s okay to ask what will work for them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you trying to get your team to bond?
