Psychological Safety @ Work: 

Non-members welcome Registration, networking, and a light breakfast begin at 7:30 am; meeting and educational session run from 8:00-9:30 am.

Session Overview - 

Psychological Safety @ Work: Increasingly, organizations have come to understand that one of the true keys to organizational and business success is increasing the level of Employee Engagement within their organizations. There is plenty of research and documentation to support this understanding. In this session, we will go a little deeper and look at the most critical factor in employee engagement, better performing teams and increased retention rates: Psychological Safety. Learn what diverse industries such as airlines, healthcare, nuclear power operators and companies like Google have found: organizations with higher levels of psychological safety have more engaged, more empowered and more connected employees.  In this interactive, fast-paced session, we will learn more about how to identify and increase psychological safety within our organizations. Attendees will leave with three key take-a ways that are applicable in any organization:

- Setting the Stage by establishing clearer expectations

- Inviting Participation by developing better listening skills

- Responding Productively by acknowledging and appreciating contributions
