In today’s evolving workplace, psychological safety has become essential for fostering innovation, collaboration, and high performance. But how can leaders and organisations create environments where people feel safe to speak up, take risks, and share ideas without fear of judgment or consequences?
Join Dawn Gosden, Chartered Coaching and Occupational Psychologist, and Roger Burt, Executive Coach and Diversity & Inclusion Lead for CMI’s South West Regional Board, for a thought-provoking session grounded in the latest research and lived experience. Together, they will explore how psychological safety has developed as a concept—from its academic origins to its modern application—and how it can be practically implemented to build inclusive, effective teams.
Drawing on contemporary research literature such as Edmondson & Bransby (2023): Psychological Safety Comes of Age and Eldor et al. (2023): The Limits of Psychological Safety, Dawn and Roger will examine what psychological safety means today, how it can be nurtured, and how it contributes to cultures of innovation and belonging.
This event is ideal for managers, team leaders, HR professionals, and anyone interested in creating more open, resilient, and high-performing organisations.
By attending this event, you will learn:
- The evolution and current thinking around psychological safety
- The practical impact of psychological safety on innovation, performance, and trust
- Lessons from research and experience on creating safe spaces at work
- How leaders and coaches can actively model and promote psychological safety
