What keeps us going in times of stress and turbulence? It's not data, technology or productivity. It's the quality of our relationships. It's friends and colleagues we've spent time building trust with through vulnerable conversations, empathy, connection and care, especially when things are messy and uncertain. It's the connective tissue of our humanness.
Robust cultures, robust teams and robust leaders are all built by design, not by default.
In this new 90-minute, live virtual masterclass, Certified Dare to Lead™ facilitator, Kylie Lewis returns to help organisations understand why building psychologically safe workplaces is a critical step for high-performing teams.
“I think there’s a lot of latent untapped talent because people are not making it psychologically safe enough to get that talent and put it to good work.” -Amy Edmondson
High-impact, well-functioning teams don't just happen. They're built through relational intelligence.
They are cultivated in the everyday interactions between team members that either create or corrode psychological safety.
Thinking about your workplace:
- Is asking for help welcomed?
- Is there a willingness to help others?
- Is it safe to say 'I don't know' or 'I made a mistake'?
- Is diversity valued?
- Is challenging the status quo invited?
- How is risk and failure navigated?
- Are brave conversations about difficult topics upskilled for and engaged in?
- How do we recognise and navigate our competency edges?
- Do I feel included and that I belong?
- Do team members genuinely care for and connect with each other?
Kylie is a Certified Dare to Lead™ and Certified Daring Way™ Facilitator. These programs are based on the research of Dr Brené Brown.
After a 20-year digital marketing career, she concluded that high-performing workplaces are a direct result of high-quality interpersonal relationships and a psychologically safe culture.
Kylie holds a Bachelor of Arts (Hons)(Psychology & Sociology) and a Masters in eBusiness and Communication.
She is a serial tech entrepreneur and believes in the power of naps and that life is too short for ironing.
