Building Psychological Safety for Your Team
Description:
Imagine if your team members:
- Felt comfortable and confident speaking up on important issues, taking risks, and seeking creative solutions without feeling insecure or embarrassed.
- Initiated giving each other quality feedback regularly, without your prompting or involvement.
- Experienced satisfaction and pride in their work and contributed enthusiastically to your organization’s goals.
- Openly shared their mistakes for the benefit of others.
How do you encourage these characteristics in your team? Embracing the concept of psychological safety and building the management tools needed to cultivate it is the first step to encouraging adaptive, innovative team performance.
