Research tells us that organisations that build trust, enable & encourage diversity of thought & provide a psychologically safe & inclusive workplace achieve better outcomes both for their people & their bottom line. 

A workplace where all team members feel comfortable speaking up without fear of rejection or retribution is a workplace where they can grow. It is a psychologically safe workplace where individuals & the organisation thrive. 
 
On the flip side, a workplace where there is no or little psychological safety cannot only be soul-destroying for team members but also pose a significant risk to the business. 

Psychological safety is about trusting your team and your leaders that you will not be humiliated, embarrassed, rejected, or punished for speaking up.  

A psychologically safe workplace begins with trust & a sense of belonging. Think Maslow’s hierarchy of needs —which shows us that as human beings we all require our basic needs to be met before we can reach our full potential. As an organisation, we need to understand that employees need to feel accepted and need to feel like they belong before they can improve their organisations.​

TRAINING & SERVICES

We help individuals & organisations build psychological safety by training managers & leaders on how to foster a culture of psychological safety in their teams & employees on how to foster their own psychological safety.

Professor Amy Edmondson coined the term psychological safety in the 1990s. Psychological safety is at the heart of the human experience and encourages teams to develop a learning culture in the workplace as it provides an environment of rewarded vulnerability. It enables team members, regardless of their position, job title or rank, to feel comfortable expressing their views and opinions, admitting mistakes, giving and receiving feedback/feedforward, suggesting improvements, and raising problems and concerns without fear of embarrassment or punishment, rejection or retribution. 

 

A psychologically safe workplace enables people to be themselves and thrive.

 

Our Psychological safety workshops can be delivered as individual workshops, or we can incorporate the content as part of a larger leadership development program or customised learning journey for your leaders.
