Psychological Safety 

Psychological safety plays a crucial role in creating workplace environments where we all feel confident to share ideas and take risks without fear of judgment. It encourages behaviours that are vital for innovation, creativity, and learning. When we believe we are safe to express our thoughts and admit mistakes, we are more likely to collaborate and feel that our input is truly valued.  

Research has shown that psychological safety is associated with numerous positive outcomes, including: 

• Improved learning and knowledge sharing: Employees feel comfortable sharing their expertise and seeking help when needed. 

• Increased creativity and innovation: Risk-taking becomes more common, leading to new ideas and approaches. 

• Higher engagement and commitment: We feel more connected to each other and our mission. 

• Better problem-solving: Openness allows for addressing issues before they escalate.
