Experience. Elevate. Evolve (EEE) – November: Psychological Safety – A Foundational Aspect of Healthy Performance
Description
Is psychological safety just a trend or a foundational aspect of healthy performance? At Mindsmatter, we believe the latter.
When there is a lack of psychological safety in the workplace, employee creativity, engagement and performance greatly suffer.
The concept of psychological safety, popularized by Harvard professor Amy Edmondson, refers to when individuals feel safe to take interpersonal risks, such as speaking up, sharing their ideas, asking questions or challenging the status quo, and making mistakes without fear of negative consequences.
Some of the characteristics of psychological safety include:
- Connection & Inclusion
- Trust & Respect
- Honest & Compassionate communication
- Non-judgment & a Growth Mindset
- Teamwork and Collaboration
Studies are increasingly demonstrating the benefits of psychological safety in the workplace, including:
- better performance
- improved innovation and problem-solving
- effective teamwork
- higher job satisfaction
- reduced turnover
