182 An Introduction to Mental Toughness and Psychological Safety #BITESIZE
Demystifying Mental Toughness - Podcast készítő David Charlton - Péntek
Today I chat with a leading authority for Mental Toughness, Doug Strycharczyk, where I share a short bite from a conversation that we had about psychological safety and its relationship with Mental Toughness. Doug goes on to introduce psychological safety which is highly relevant for those involved in teams or organisations. Key Learning Points: It’s worth checking out the work of Harvard Professor Amy Edmondson who is an expert on psychological safety. Amy Edmondson describes psychological safety as creating a climate where people are encouraged to take risks and that they don't feel the need to censor themselves before talking. People are happy to ask questions and make their contributions without fear of criticism. A psychologically safe environment nurtures mutual trust, support and respect. Leaders are often more mentally tough than many of their employees therefore being self-aware is critical so that they communicate more effectively.
