Psychological safety: how to get members of our teams to actually speak up. It's a common leadership misconception that just by encouraging team members to voice opinions we create a culture of openness. We need to address the issues (individual & systemic) that prevent people from speaking up. Five actions: 1) Express intent (but only ask for the level of candour you’re ready & able to receive) 2) Use standard questions like "what are the pros & cons of this idea?" ("What do you think?” can feel like a trap) 3) Discuss communication preferences & use the mediums that play to their preferences rather than yours 4) Lend social capital to people who are in the minority in your organisation (& less likely to speak up) - disrupt biases by giving them the floor 5) Attribute credit fairly to the people who did the work https://t.co/eZYVlwwYoW.
