Radical candor, then, results from a combination of caring personally and challenging directly. But what does it look like in practice? Scott has created an acronym to help people remember:
HHIPP: “Radical candor is humble, it’s helpful, it’s immediate, it’s in person — in private if it’s criticism and in public if it’s praise — and it doesn’t personalize.” That last P makes a key distinction: “My boss didn’t say, ‘You're stupid.’ She said, ‘You sounded stupid when you said um.’ There's a big difference between the two.”

What it is
Now live is a new set of permissions in HubSpot CRM that enables administrators to more closely manage who can access what within the tool.
As sales teams grow, it becomes more necessary to control access to information. Which team members should be able to add properties and update deal stages? Should everyone be allowed to import and export data? With today’s update, HubSpot CRM empowers sales managers and administrators to get more granular in setting permissions, ensuring that team members are only able to access the information that’s relevant to them.
How it works
For HubSpot CRM users, navigate to Settings > Users. Add a new user or edit an existing one, and you’ll see a new set of options under the “Sales” user roles:
For each user, admins will be able to choose the following permissions:
CRM Features (Companies, Deals, Tasks): Enabled/Disabled
View: Everything, owned + unassigned, owned only
Edit: Everything, owned + unassigned, owned only
Bulk Delete: Enabled/Disabled
Import: Enabled/Disabled
Export: Enabled/Disabled
Edit Settings: Enabled/Disabled
These permissions can be mixed and matched on a per-user basis to make the configuration that works best for a specific team. Users can also separate view and edit permissions. For example, a manager might let his or her reps see everything, but only edit the records they own.
