Most organisations have their Equality, Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging strategy (EDI&B) and learning in place, however none of this is truly effective without people feeling a sense of psychological safety.
Psychological safety also helps organisations realise the significant benefits of their EDI&B plans.
It is our leaders who set the tone for psychological safety in our organisations, modelling the behaviours and thinking to encourage the trust and confidence for people to be themselves.
When we feel confident and comfortable in bringing our true selves to work, the impact can be significant. Feeling able to ask for help, share ideas or challenge when necessary without negative consequences, gives organisations an advantage in staying flexible, solving problems, and innovating.
