Psychological Safety Is Not All or Nothing

Sample Client List

There was a great discussion and series of questions from my previous blog post on psychological safety. (https://reachingresults.com/psychologically-safe-meetings/)

One of the insights that I gained from that discussion was that some may have the idea that solutions we aim at improving psych safety at work are either 100% effective or 100% ineffective.

My view is that that’s not normally how it works with groups of people. It’s not an all or nothing proposition. And furthermore, some things work for me on one day and not on other days. People are complex organisms. And a lot of the research bares this out, by the way.

Just because your techniques and leadership behaviors don’t automatically produce the behaviors and results you’re looking for, does not mean they’re ineffective.

If we remember, that behavior is a product of the environment, that will keep us, honest and focused on creating the right environment to get the best out of ourselves and others.
