Workplace Health & Safety
Creating Psychologically Safe Workplaces.
Jess will explore what psychological safety really means and why it
is essential for thriving teams. Jess will provide practical tools to help leaders
build trust and inclusion, challenge stigma, and support wellbeing. Importantly, she will also show how courage and vulnerability work hand-in-hand, and why leadership is less about having all the answers and more about creating environments where people feel safe to bring their whole selves.
Psychological Safety in the Workplace
I use my past and my experiences to foster environments within organisations that remove Stigma from conversations about Mental Health, Addiction, ADHD etc – This means I create my own narrative of Psychological Safety in the workplace and the importance of trauma informed cared and hearing people – not just listening, hearing = what they are saying. By hearing peoples’ stories, their experiences, we create safety in workplaces where most people, on average, spend 75% of their time.
