Psychological Safety Masterclass

Overview

William Kahn defines psychological safety as “the ability to show and employ one’s self without fear of negative consequences of self-image, status or career.” It can be defined as a shared belief that the team is safe from interpersonal risk and that team members feel accepted and respected. When team members feel psychologically safe, they feel the freedom to speak up, admit mistakes and be active contributors to team decisions while also creating a learning culture where innovation and productivity can thrive. In this course, learners will be guided through the four areas where Psychological Safety must exist.
