Psychological Safety – The Key to High-Performing Teams

Creating high-performing teams that can innovate and deliver is critical in any workplace. 

Decades of research have shown that psychological safety is a key ingredient to creating the conditions that allow teams to do their best work together. It also provides a host of great outcomes for businesses, including improved productivity, learning, and employee well-being. 

In this interactive workshop, participants will develop their knowledge of psychological safety and its impact on teams. Together, we’ll explore how to assess psychological safety, and discuss strategies for leaders to build psychological safety in their teams.

Learning objectives:

• Understand core concepts including psychological safety, employee voice, and impression management
• Describe a method to assess psychological safety in any team
• Identify leadership strategies to create greater psychological safety in teams

This course is scheduled to run in person. Contact mail@qnet.ca if you are unable to attend the course in person; we will check to see if you can join the in-person course by Zoom.
