What is psychological safety?
Psychological safety is a belief among team members who respect and trust each other that they are safe to take interpersonal and intellectual risks, make mistakes, and voice their concerns without the fear of retribution or negative repercussions to their career.
(Edmondson and Bransby, 2022)
We are developing a tech-based solution grounded in PhD research which examined the effects of psychological safety and leader behaviours in high-demand, high-stress workplaces. Our product is designed to assist organisations in identifying barriers that are preventing them from building psychological safety and assessing the effectiveness of workplace resources in high-stress work environments.
Our founding partner, Dr Emma Clarke, conducted research using surveys and interviews with an extensive group of leaders, employees, and former employees of law firms. From these insights, she developed The Three-Factor Model of Psychological Safety™. When employees work in a climate of psychological safety this enhances performance, innovation, employee wellbeing, and retention.
We interrogate employee data that has already been collected by your organisation.
Surveys and interviews are designed by our team and conducted with your staff to understand their perspectives and experiences in the workplace.
Quantitative and qualitative data is collected from leaders and employees and anonymised before the analysis phase.
Applying The Three-Factor Model of Psychological Safety™ and using statistical software and data analysis techniques, we analyse and interpret the data.
A report outlining the key findings and our recommendations to improve your workplace culture and organisational performance is produced.

She developed The Three-Factor Model of Psychological Safety™ to 1) identify barriers and blind spots, 2) understand leader behaviours that influence psychological safety and 3) assess the availability and access to resources which help employees cope in high-stress working environments.
