Overview
In the dynamic world of knowledge work, psychological safety stands as the bedrock of innovation and collaboration. This workshop, inspired by Amy C. Edmondson's principles from The Fearless Organization, delves into creating an environment where ideas flow freely, and mistakes are seen as learning opportunities. It's about fostering a culture where expressing concerns, asking questions, and sharing half-formed ideas are not just accepted but encouraged.
Context
Psychological safety is the belief that one won't be punished or humiliated for speaking up with ideas, questions, concerns, or mistakes. It's a concept deeply ingrained in our ethos.
