What is the value of a specialist who does not dare to speak? And what about a talented employee who feels intimidated by his boss? If you want your employees to be able to fully use and deploy their talents at work, they must first feel safe.
A seed only germinates when the soil is fertile. The same applies to your employees. Their talents only really flourish when they are allowed to take risks, make mistakes and voice criticism. In short, when their workplace is a safe environment where they can and are allowed to be themselves.
“People perform best when they are allowed to be themselves. Then you get the best cooperation and the best result.”
In the interactive training course ‘Develop a safe team climate’ you gain the necessary insights and skills to make your workplace a safe environment.
After this training you will know what psychological safety is and why it can sometimes be so challenging to achieve a safe working climate. At the same time, you will understand why it is essential to make your team a ‘dream team’.
You work on building trust and connection, while also recognising and acknowledging your own (limiting) beliefs and motivations, as well as those of your team members. At the same time, you create space to enhance courageous interactions, allowing to address unproductive behaviours in the team.
Finally, in addition to the necessary knowledge, you also acquire the necessary facilitation skills to apply this effectively in your team. With your personal action plan and the useful visual and/ or e-book you receive from us, you can continue working on a safe team climate even after the training.
In this interactive training, we guide you through six chapters that reveal all the secrets of psychological safety and provide you with concrete tools to establish it within your team.
1. The Importance of Psychological Safety
You understand that safety is not synonymous with trust or kindness, but rather the belief that you can take interpersonal risks in the workplace. This means being able to express opinions and provide feedback without fear of repercussions, voice concerns, and make mistakes to learn from them.
2. The Characteristics of Psychological Safety
Would you like to achieve better performance, greater engagement, innovation, learning behaviours, and more joy at work during times of rapidly changing collaborations? Ensure that your people feel safe. You can do this by fostering the five concrete behaviours that create a safe team climate. You will learn to identify these behaviours and assess your own team using a team scan.
3. On Courage and (Limiting) Beliefs
What does it mean to engage in productive exchanges with one another, and what holds us back? You will learn about the limiting beliefs that often (unintentionally) lead to unproductive behaviour during collaborations, as well as how to address them effectively.
4. What Makes Your Team Successful?
Do you want to build a ‘dream team’? Then make sure there’s a strong balance between performance and psychological safety. The latter requires trust, connection, and courage.
5. Take Action!
Using a job aid, you will work through your own action plan and case for change within your team. What specific steps will you take, and more importantly: why? What is the impact you want to achieve?
6. Check-Out
Since everything begins with applying the right facilitation techniques during team exercises, we will put check-out techniques into practice through example exercises. These will help you create a safer team climate within your own team.

You don’t build a strong culture of dialogue with a one-size-fits-all approach. To make dialogue work effectively within organizations, we offer various formats tailored to different needs and situations. These tools help strengthen skills, drive change, and achieve learning objectives. Discover how our formats contribute to impact and sustainable results.
