Bring the Power of Psychological Safety to Your Teams

Psychological Safety has been proven to increase employee engagement, mental health and physical safety, even learning, innovation and performance. But what is this powerful force? How can it be measured? What are the benefits to you and your team? And how can it be strengthened?

Simply, Psychological Safety is how secure we feel to be ourselves, to be vulnerable enough to learn, to contribute and even to challenge the way things are done.

And extensive, real-world research has shown that teams with higher psychological safety have better:

  • physical safety
  • mental health
  • diversity AND inclusion
  • progress in learning
  • innovation
  • employee engagement
  • and even organisational performance.

Yes, PERFORMANCE! Higher psychological safety can be directly linked to an organisation’s success, as measured by Key Performance Indicators (KPI).

A Message from your Instructor

I have worked in teams of all sizes and at all levels in many different organisations - from multinational corporations, to the largest national businesses, and even small consulting firms. I’ve had the privilege to lead support teams, project implementation teams, sales teams, consulting teams and executive teams, across a range of industries, countries and cultures.

I have run training, facilitated workshops, led planning and strategy sessions, and also taught graduate students for more than 10 years. I have a PhD in the study of complexity and how our feelings motivate us and drive our behaviours, and a Bachelor’s degree in psychology.

And for more than a decade I’ve been helping organisations across the Asia-Pacific region power their enterprises by empowering their people.

But I’ve never seen anything like the power of psychological safety to impact the working lives and performance of teams at all levels!

I’m grateful for this opportunity to put all my experience, expertise, and specialised study and training into such a worthwhile program - one that will bring greater workplace satisfaction, improved mental and physical health, and more meaningful and connected working lives to so many people across the Asia-Pacific region.
