In today's dynamic workplace, innovation, collaboration and engagement thrive only when people feel safe to speak up, share ideas and take risks—without fear of embarrassment, rejection or punishment. This concept is known as Psychological Safety.

Grounded in the pioneering research of Dr. Amy Edmondson, this course is designed to help organizations foster a culture where employees can express themselves freely, challenge the status quo respectfully and learn from mistakes—leading to improved performance, retention and mental well-being.

Participants will explore the core principles, leadership behaviors and team practices that make Psychological Safety a foundation for high-performing teams. Through case studies, tools and interactive activities, learners will not only understand the “what” and “why” of Psychological Safety, but also gain practical strategies on how to create and sustain it within their own teams and organizations.
