Building Fearless Organizations for Learning, Innovation & Growth
Have you ever been afraid to voice your opinion in a meeting? Been frustrated by your team members’ failure to participate? Wondered if there is anything you can do to lead innovation in your organization? Have you heard that Google has identified Psychological Safety as the single most important predictor of team performance?
At the 2019 PSPS Leadership Forum, Amy C. Edmondson, Novartis Professor of Leadership and Management at the Harvard Business School, will answer these questions and more. She will discuss why psychological safety must be at the core of a company’s culture for it to be successful. In this in-depth and interactive session, Amy will present her most current research findings, demonstrate why psychologically safe teams outperform others, and provide a step-by-step action plan that you can implement to build a culture of psychological safety in your organization.
About the Speaker: Amy studies teaming, psychological safety, and leadership, and her articles have been published numerous academic and management outlets, including Administrative Science Quarterly, Academy of Management Journal, Harvard Business Review and California Management Review. Amy’s new book, The Fearless Organization: Creating Psychological Safety in the Workplace for Learning, Innovation and Growth (Wiley, 2018), offers a practical guide for organizations serious about success in the modern economy.
Her earlier books – Teaming: How organizations learn, innovate and compete in the knowledge economy (Jossey-Bass, 2012), Teaming to Innovate (Jossey-Bass, 2013) and Extreme Teaming (Emerald, 2017) – explore teamwork in dynamic organizational environments. In Building the future: Big teaming for audacious innovation (Berrett-Koehler, 2016), she examines the challenges and opportunities of teaming across industries to build smart cities.
