The fearless organization: creating psychological safety in the workplace for learning, innovation, and growth Ebook

The Fearless Organization is an essential requirement for team learning. This book describes an interpersonal climate where people feel able to express ideas, ask questions, quickly acknowledge mistakes, and raise concerns about the work early and often. The Fearless Organization provides a roadmap for building and developing psychological safety as a strategy for promoting the engagement and candor that are critical to succeeding in the knowledge economy. We describe steps along a road that is not always smooth. To illustrate each step, we look at real life scenarios that show how psychological safety for team learning provides the spark that can fertilize creativity, clarify goals, achieve accountability, and redefine the meaning of leadership–and more.
