Creating psychological safety "Feeling that I am able to engage, to learn and to speak up when I need to" Psychological safety refers to a workplace where individuals feel safe to take interpersonal risks, such as speaking up, disagreeing, questioning, or raising concerns, without fear of negative repercussions. It can include feeling that you have autonomy, people listen to you and that you are trusted. It has a big impact on motivation and through that on wellbeing and performance. Its absence can have significant negative impact on wellbeing and attainment. There are two dimensions to this. Leaders and organisations can create a culture where psychological safety flourishes. In some settings the individual’s mental responses will determine whether they feel safe to speak up. Both need to be understood. We will explore: Exactly what psychological safety is. A leader can create a culture of psychological safety. How individuals can optimise their feelings of safety.

What is Psychological Safety and why it matters. How leaders can create that environment. How individuals can become self-aware of their responses to their environment and learn to make the most of it.
