Q: What is the difference between psychological safety and sense of security? A:
- You can think of it as a sense of security.
- And what kind of “sense of security” is that?
- For example
- No one will think you’re stupid for asking questions.
- You can’t be offended if you have a different opinion than others.
- When individual team members have that sense of security, “there is psychological safety in the team.
- Psychological safety is an attribute of the team, not the individual.
- When teams have psychological safety, it encourages learning within the team and ultimately enhances team outcomes
