Show Notes: MLDC Book of the Week – Radical CandorEpisode 256 of The HaltingWinter Podcast

Most leaders mistake being nice for being kind, and that confusion quietly destroys trust, performance, and culture. In this episode, Seth Winterhalter reframes honesty as the truest form of care. Drawing from Kim Scott's Radical Candor, he explores how courageously combining empathy with accountability transforms teams and rebuilds credibility in local government leadership.
