In our 3-hour session, Psychological Safety: A Pre-Requisite for Learning and Growth, we focus on how the presence of psychological safety can directly impact the ability of participants to learn during a learning intervention. Without psychological safety, fear and anxiety can prevent individuals from asking questions, taking risks, and asking for support, which hinders their ability to learn.
This session will provide you with practical tools to recognize and address these barriers, create a safer space where people can let their guard down, and engage in interpersonal risk-taking behaviour that directly supports a growth mindset.
