Do you have any suggestions for people in an IC role that appreciates &quot;radical candor&quot; but in an organization where management are trained to be guarded? I wouldn&#x27;t say it is manipulative but it is definitely insincere. The best way I can describe it is a paternal top down management culture that often feels patronizing. It&#x27;s not toxic, it&#x27;s just not radical or candid.
