Creating a culture of psychological safety is a leadership issue but it's a change process where we all need to play a part by shifting our behaviour from bystander to upstander. How often are we bystanders not upstanders? Sometimes we are not even aware that we are witnessing something that makes someone feel insecure. Or we shrug it off and let it go. Or we excuse poor or inappropriate behaviour.

One of the most important elements for any organisation wanting to foster a culture of inclusion is to create awareness. Specifically, how we can all help reduce toxic workplace cultures by staging a bystander intervention. Many companies encourage it, but don’t actually tell people how to go about it. Research has indicated that women can be more reluctant to intervene with a bystander intervention for fear of repercussions to their job security. This is especially true if those involved are senior and male. A bystander intervention can be an initiative which is very much in the hands of male colleagues.
