"To do their best work, people need to feel secure and safe in their workplace. " In this interview, Martha Lagase speaks with Amy C. Edmondson, author of The Fearless Organization who shares some guidance for managers and leaders. Managers can create psychological safety among the people they lead by inviting input through asking good questions, recognising the courage it takes to speak up and helping individuals see how their input matters. Although this requires effort, it is well worth the it.
Good leadership and team effectiveness comes about through some good amount of deliberate effort and thoughfulness in how we do things. To create teams that are courageous and not pre-occupied with looking good, leaders must be intentional about the kind of workplace environment that they create. Whats interesting to note in this article is that psychological safety relates to diversity, inclusion and belonging.
