What is psychological safety and how do we create it?

<p>There seems to be a divide between people who think everyone should be tough-as-nails and just suck up abuse and those who think we should be kinder, gentler and leave space for each other. </p> <p>I grew up in the rub-some-dirt-on-it world. At the risk of being called a "snowflake" I tend to be in the second group now.</p> <p>I invited Ed Samuel, Cole Galloway and Wayne Buckhanan, to have a conversation with me about psychological safety. It did my heart good to hear their thoughts and where they stand on this subject.</p> <p>What does psychological safety mean to you and  who do you think is responsible for creating it?</p> <p>To learn about the panelists, please visit their LinkedIn profiles: Dr. Wayne Buckhanan: https://www.linkedin.com/in/waynebuckhanan/ Cole Galloway, PT, PhD: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cole-galloway-1ba715107/  Ed Samuel: https://www.linkedin.com/in/edsamuel/  Dr Robyn Odegaard: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robynodegaard/</p> <p>#QuickHits are designed to exercise your brain by letting you listen in on an unscripted conversation to get other people's thoughts on various subjects.
