The psychologically safe workplace with Amy Edmondson

The brain works best in an environment that is free of fear. A psychologically safe workplace is where people believe they can speak out and be heard. It is a fearless environment that fosters learning, innovation and growth by encouraging inclusivity and getting the best out of people. Despite its research-backed benefits, psychological safety still exists only at the fringes of the corporate business world. Joining Andy Storch on the show, Amy Edmondson tells us why organizations need to take psychological safety seriously if they want to lead in innovation and growth. Amy is an expert in creating a fearless organization through a psychologically safe workplace. She is the Novartis Professor of Leadership and Management at the Harvard Business School, where she does research work on human interaction, providing relevant content that enables businesses to succeed and contribute meaningfully to society.
