As Dr. Brown outlines in her book, "Items that frequently show up as things that get in the way of psychological safety in teams and groups include judgment, unsolicited advice-giving, interrupting, and sharing outside the team meeting. The behaviors that people need from their team or group almost always include listening, staying curious, being honest, and keeping confidence." After watching Amy Edmondson's TED Talk "Building a Psychologically Safe Workplace" (posted in this week's course content), reflect on the three guidelines she presents to build feelings of psychological safety in an organization. Create a craft case study describing a scenario that presents a problem faced in an organization (could be real or fictional but realistic) in which the outcome would differ based on high or low feelings of psychological safety in the team, and describe how a leader could use all three guidelines presented in Edmondson's talk to improve the outcome. Choose an organization or industry that specifically challenges the issue and how a leader could use all three suggestions to alter the outcome. Be sure to cite Edmondson's TED Talk in your References. Using additional outside scholarly resources to support your ideas is welcomed but not required.
