When Work Cultures Turn Toxic (with Rob Copeland)

Hello, everybody, and welcome to the Radical Sebatical. You've got just me, Kim Scott, here. The rest of the Radical Canter team is on sabbatical, and I am talking to the authors of the books that have meant the most to me that I've read over the last couple of years. And I'm thrilled to have with us today Rob Copeland, the author of The Fund. Welcome, Rob.

Thank you for having me. I loved your book so much. And I loved it for a bunch of different reasons. But why don't we just just the anecdotes in your book are incredible. So for folks who haven't read The Fund, it's about Bridgewater, Ray Dalio's company.

And it is near and dear to my heart because sometimes people confuse radical transparency and radical candor. And they couldn't be more different. So Rob, why don't you open with the pissing anecdote from the book? And then we'll jump in and talk about other stuff. Well, there's no there's no better way to grab an audience than saying the first anecdote will be about piss.
