Conquer the most essential adaptation to the knowledge economy
Psychological Safety at Work: How to Ensure Learning and Innovation in
the Knowledge Economy offers practical guidance for teams and
organizations who are serious about success in the modern economy.
With so much riding on innovation, creativity, and spark, it is
essential to attract and retain quality talent—but what good does
this talent do if no one is able to speak their mind? The traditional
culture of “fitting in” and “going along” spells doom in the
knowledge economy. Success requires a continuous influx of new ideas,
new challenges, and critical thought, and the interpersonal climate
must not suppress, silence, ridicule or intimidate. Not every idea is
good, and yes there are stupid questions, and yes dissent can slow
things down, but talking through these things is an essential part of
the creative process. People must be allowed to voice half-finished
thoughts, ask questions from left field, and brainstorm out loud; it
creates a culture in which a minor flub or momentary lapse is no big
deal, and where actual mistakes are owned and corrected, and where the
next left-field idea could be the next big thing. This book explores
this culture of psychological safety, and provides a blueprint for
bringing it to life. The road is sometimes bumpy, but succinct and
informative scenario-based explanations provide a clear path forward
to constant learning and healthy innovation. Explore the link between
psychological safety and high performance Create a culture where
it’s “safe” to express ideas, ask questions, and admit mistakes
Nurture the level of engagement and candor required in today’s
knowledge economy Follow a step-by-step framework for establishing
psychological safety in your team or organization Shed the
“yes-men” approach and step into real performance. Fertilize
creativity, clarify goals, achieve accountability, redefine
leadership, and much more. Psychological Safety at Work: How to Ensure
Learning and Innovation in the Knowledge Economy helps you bring about
this most critical transformation.
