Psychological safety is recognized as a key differentiator in successful team performance and a foundational component for openness, creativity, and risk-taking. In this two-hour program, we will first briefly review the research to establish credibility. Following the introduction, the program moves to an exercise where participants experience the presence and absence of a psychologically safe environment.
Following awareness and experience, we discuss how to create psychological safety and enable high performance. The activity will offer lessons that participants can immediately apply to subsequent sessions, daily work, and even personal relationships.
