Incorporating Psychological Safety In Your Team

Psychological safety is when you feel safe in your team and you are more open about admitting your mistake, speaking up with ease without being embarrassed, and experimenting with new things. To make your team feel psychologically safe you need to first create an environment that encourages it.  You can do it by following simple steps:  1. Learning from Mistakes: In a psychologically safe environment, teams are more open to admitting their mistakes and acknowledge each other for their work. They are more clear about finding the solution rather than blaming each other.  2. Difference Without Conflicts: In a psychologically safe team, differences mean having diverse ideas and opinions about how to approach work. There is mutual respect among each other and each member of the team is given full autonomy to put their ideas on the table. 3. Openness In Team: Teams work with more efficiency when each member can bring their true self with them.  4. Improvements For Better Effici

4 Steps to Tackle Unconscious Bias

How organizations can better leverage the effort they put into diversity training?

Diversify your training approach . The absence of any observable change in the behavior of male or white employees overall suggests that we need to stop treating diversity training as a silver bullet. Invest in a multi-pronged diversity and inclusion program that encourages underrepresented talent to join, stay, suc ceed, and lead within your organization. Get data. Regularly collecting and reviewing data will let you know how your programs and policies are performing, so you can make adjustments. Many organizations track diversity metrics around recruitment, selection, and retention. Experiment. Treating diversity training as an experiment an help organizations gain insight into what’s effective and what’s not without reducing the benefits from the training programs themselves.

Reduce Personal Bias When Hiring

Good intentions do not necessarily lead to good results, when it comes to hiring diverse candidates. Internal analyses show that even though the company has interviewed a large number of non-white candidates in previous rounds, the final hires will still be whites. Changes in process and diversity initiatives alone are not going to remedy the lack of equal representation in companies. Individual managers who are often making the final hiring decisions need to address their own bias. Here are the few strategies we recommend: 1. Accept that you have biases, especially affinity bias 2. Create a personal learning list 3. Ask: Where is, or could, bias show up in this decision 4. Reduce the influence of your peers’ opinions on your hiring decisions 5. Understand how reducing bias could personally benefit you Know more...

6 essential elements of great workplace culture

New-gen entrepreneurs tend to prioritize workplace cultures that allow every employee a fair chance to voice their ideas, regardless of the hierarchy. Therefore, it becomes a challenge for these entrepreneurs to balance transparency in open workplace culture and consistently keep themselves up to date on changes and keep improving their capabilities. The smaller organizations need to be a bit more cautious while catering to their customers and shareholders.
