Values-Based Communication
Honesty becomes more useful when people understand the needs and values behind it. CANDOR builds a shared practice for clear requests, respectful boundaries, meaningful recognition, and responses that keep the conversation open.
Why this matters
A difficult conversation can protect both the work and the relationship when each person can understand what matters and what is being asked.
How we work with it
Practice CANDOR: Clarify the Facts, Acknowledge Feelings, Name the Need, make a Direct Request, connect Outcome and Meaning, and Regulate and Respond. Use real or hypothetical situations to separate observations from judgments, check understanding, and try the same skills in feedback, boundaries, and appreciation.
Who this is for
