Civility and Respect

mtwtrlibrary — 2023-05-07 20:50:43 UTC

In its simplest form, civility and respect is about how we treat each other at work. In highly pressurised NHS systems, behaviours of incivility and disrespect can become common place. People report that bullying and harassment is prevalent in the NHS, and this rude and unkind behaviour can have a detrimental impact on staff wellbeing and patient care.

You can't just switch on teamwork. It takes time for a new team to "gel" and work to its full potential. What's more, team members go through stages as they move from strangers to co-workers.

What Is Psychological Safety at Work? How Leaders Can Build Psychologically Safe Workplaces

These 8 steps will help leaders build greater psychological safety in the workplace, so their teams are more successful and engaged.

Building Psychological Safety

mtwtrlibrary — 2023-10-24 07:23:39 UTC

Today, it’s not enough for leaders to drive strong employee performance. They need to take care of their team’s wellbeing, too. Here are a few ways to build a psychologically safe workplace:

Don’t focus too much on building the “perfect” team. As a manager, it’s normal to want to hold everyone to a higher standard. But perfectionism can make you reactive, distrustful, and a micromanager. Instead, let your team make mistakes, avoid blaming individuals for problems, give them the space to learn and grow, and recognize the good work that individuals do.
Advocate for diversity, inclusion, and equity. First, understand how diversity works. As you do, understand the biases that stop you from making more thoughtful and inclusive decisions. Finally, build skills like cultural competence that can help you lead more diverse teams.
Communicate with care. For people to trust you, you have to learn with vulnerability and openness. When you’re open about your struggles and opinions, it’ll help your team members practice the same behaviors. Building this culture of openness also requires that you lead conversations with empathy and use language in a way that affirming rather than alientating or intrusive.
