4 Stages of Psychological Safety
Successful companies need to create workplaces where employees feel empowered to contribute their ideas. But not all employees feel safe enough to speak up during a meeting or pitch an idea that goes against the status quo.
Psychological safety in the workplace can be a challenge to create. It means building vulnerability and confidence in your employees so they feel safe to say what’s on their minds. Workplaces that don’t have psychological safety won’t be able to move forward with new ideas and might experience high turnover because employees won’t feel free to voice their opinions.
The 4 Stages of Psychological Safety is a framework to help teams measure and improve the level of psychological safety inside their organization. Here are the 4 stages of psychological safety that reflect the human needs of any social setting.
Inclusion Safety: Feeling included and accepted
Learner Safety: Feeling safe to learn, grow, and develop.
Contributor Safety: Feeling safe to contribute and make a difference.
Challenger Safety: Feeling safe to challenge the status quo.
