Fear is a powerful psychological gag that in some (in fact, many) companies becomes part of the work suit. And it’s not just a matter of fear of punishment or dismissal. People are silent so as not to get into an awkward position, not to lose face or not to be a messenger with bad news. Not wanting to upset or offend their boss is also a common reason why employees prefer to keep their opinions to themselves. Why is this dangerous for business? Why did the space shuttle crash, planes collide, and giants like Volkswagen and Nokia nearly go down? Amy Edmondson, professor of leadership and management at Harvard Business School, uses many examples from a variety of industries to prove that psychological safety affects not only the financial performance of an organization, but in some cases helps to avoid collapse and real tragedies. Of course, not every idea is good and Not every question is appropriate, but it is much worse when employees are afraid to express any ideas, ask questions or report problems. Today, it is vital to create an environment in organizations in which the interpersonal climate does not lead to suppression, silencing, ridicule or intimidation. In order for a company to always have a place for innovation, an atmosphere that promotes the mutual exchange of knowledge between people is required! And knowledge includes doubts, questions, mistakes and failures.
