At the risk of stating the obvious, effective leadership is one of the fundamental ingredients for creating resilient, high-performance teams.
Having spent years advising global industry leaders, including Deloitte, KPMG, EY and Aviva, I have a wealth of experience in executive coaching and leadership development. I work with these leaders on how to create high performance cultures, with a strong focus on the concept of psychological safety.
The term “team psychological safety” was coined by Harvard professor Dr Amy Edmondson. She describes it as:
“The shared belief held by members of a team that it’s OK to take risks, to express their ideas and concerns, to speak up with questions, and to admit mistakes — all without fear of negative consequences.”
Google's Project Aristotle was a study of hundreds of Google’s internal teams to understand where breakthrough high performance comes from. After analysing vast amounts of data, the researchers discovered that psychological safety was the most important factor for team success.
My talks provide insights into transforming leadership styles to support emotional intelligence, psychological safety, and effective team dynamics. Leaders will learn how to inspire and motivate their teams through change and uncertainty.
