The Psychological Safety Checklist
Assess the true culture of your team and move from survival to flow.
When teams do not feel safe to speak up, innovate, or disagree, it quietly costs the business. This free checklist helps you identify the hidden signs of a survival culture and provides actionable steps to build true psychological safety.
What looks like a performance problem is often a safety problem
For many organisations, the focus is purely on outputs. But when leaders only look at the numbers, they miss the underlying culture driving them.
What you might see on the surface:
- High turnover
- Lack of innovation
- Defensiveness and blame
- Silence in meetings
Underneath, your team may be operating in survival mode. They are spending their energy protecting themselves rather than driving the business forward.
