Hope you find it useful. Pls let us know if it sparks any thoughts or you have anything else to share.

In the meantime, here's an image I like of psychological safety. When you have the security of someone effectively saying "It's okay, I've got your back", so you can go out on a limb on something or stretch yourself to achieve in ways you wouldn't otherwise. We need this social support in teams and managers should treat it as an important sort of 'relationship capital'. (The pic is 2 of my kids in the Alps - happy days )
