NAMM YP Book Club readers are getting into the real stuff.
This week’s responses from Radical Candor had a clear theme: hard conversations do not usually get easier just because we wait.
Sometimes avoiding tension in the moment can create more confusion, more resentment, or less clarity for the people involved.
The goal is not to be harsh.
The goal is to care enough to be clear.
What kind of workplace conversation gets harder the longer it waits?

Your perspective could be the one someone else needs to hear. ✍️

We want YOU to be part of the conversation through Pulse and Music Inc.

One of the best parts of being a young professional is learning from the people around you, and sharing what you’ve learned along the way.

Whether you’re a seasoned writer or have never submitted an article before, you don’t have to be an expert to have something worth saying. Sometimes the most valuable insights come from simply being in the middle of the journey.

The results are in, and the top response was clear: YP Book Club readers are thinking a lot about clearer feedback.

That makes sense.

A lot of workplace conversations get harder when people are left to guess what is expected, what needs to change, or what “good” actually looks like.

This week’s responses reminded us that Radical Candor is not about choosing between being kind and being direct.

It is about learning how to do both.

Care personally.
Challenge directly.
Make the conversation useful.

What is one workplace conversation that would be easier with more clarity?

One week until the NAMM YP Book Club begins!

Why join?

Because great books are better when you have people to share them with. Because a little accountability can help you finally finish the book sitting on your shelf. And because hearing someone else’s perspective can change the way you think.

Our Networking Committee is excited for the conversations, connections, and growth ahead, and we hope you’ll join us.

Our first book is Radical Candor by Kim Scott!

Sign up now and get ready to read with us!

Looking for a simple way to meet peers, reflect on practical career ideas, and stay connected with NAMM YP between events?

NAMM YP Book Club is built for that.

This quarter, we’re reading Radical Candor by Kim Scott and using it as a starting point for conversations about feedback, trust, communication, and leadership at every level.
You’ll read one chapter a week, answer light reflection prompts, and connect with other young professionals across the music products industry.

Join the conversation. Share your takeaways. Bring your questions.

Start with why. Don’t post just to post.

Natalie Morrison of Yamaha Music USA and Scott Rife of Eastman Music Company talk about social media storytelling through the lens of purpose. The strongest content does not start with “What should I post?” It starts with why the story matters, what impact it had, and what others can take from it.

What is one recent moment from your work that had a real impact?
