This is one of the best cameos by Liam Nesson. This thread on @StephenKing’s question on Liam Nesson’s film is an interesting one.

Kim Scott defines Radical Candor as striking the balance between: • Caring personally • Challenging directly The leader who communicates well strikes the perfect mix of: • Honesty • Empathy • Directness How to develop this? Our 6th principle will help.

Wonder @avtansa if you can help? Just heard an interesting word called “run” which is like “lean” or immersed. Apparently “lean” is derived from “tahleen”? Ignore the spelling errors. Thanks for your help.
