Welcome to this podcast, "Leadership Starts with You." This business novel is the story, the journey and yes the evolution of Kathleen Battlefield. I invite you to join Kathleen on her journey and maybe it will be your journey too. 

This sixth podcast is about psychological safety in a team.

What exactly is psychological safety?  And what does it have to do with success in a team?

It means there is a working atmosphere that allows everyone to speak up with a sense of safety, where they can ask questions without being judged, and where team members are encouraged to take risks:

They might try something new or experiment with an existing process. Insights and mistakes are shared openly, and colleagues learn from each other. People support each other and don't talk about others behind their backs. No one spreads gossip about others, no one rolls their eyes or sighs audibly. The whole team is a safety zone, so to speak.

And yes, these things don't happen on their own.

In this podcast, you'll learn three specific things you can do to promote psychological safety on your team.
