Psychological Safety in Teams
Practical team skills for trust, communication, and speaking up at work
Support teams to communicate openly, raise concerns, and work together with trust and respect.
This course supports teams to build shared behaviours that encourage speaking up, asking questions, and learning from mistakes. The course focuses on practical, everyday actions that strengthen trust, communication, and psychological safety within teams.
Introduction
Most people experience work through their team. Team interactions shape whether it feels safe to speak up, ask for clarity, raise concerns, or admit mistakes. Even in companies with strong values and leadership, team dynamics can vary widely.
This course focuses on how teams communicate and respond to one another day to day. It supports teams to recognise behaviours that build trust and openness, and to reduce patterns that unintentionally discourage participation or silence concerns.
The emphasis is on practical team behaviour rather than policies or individual performance.
Why This Course Matters
Teams often notice issues early-unclear expectations, workload pressure, risks, or mistakes-but may hesitate to speak up. Silence can feel safer than raising questions, particularly if past responses felt dismissive or unpredictable.
When psychological safety is low, communication narrows, learning slows, and misunderstandings increase.
This course matters because it helps teams understand what supports speaking up in everyday interactions and builds shared behaviours that strengthen trust, clarity, and collaboration over time.
