Your turn to reflect!
Think about your own team or work style:
- When do you feel most comfortable speaking up?
- What’s one small change that could help you or your team feel safer at work?
Which of these feels most challenging for you in your hybrid team?
☐ Speaking up without fear of judgment
☐ Staying connected with teammates
☐ Getting timely feedback on your contributions
☐ Balancing work and personal boundaries
Psychological Safety in a Nutshell
“Psychological safety is a shared belief that the team is safe for interpersonal risk-taking.”
– Amy Edmondson, Harvard Business School
It means creating a workplace where people feel free to express ideas, ask questions, and admit mistakes – without fear of embarrassment or punishment. Whether you’re leading a team or part of one, psychological safety is the foundation of innovation, motivation and wellbeing.
