👋 Hi there,
According to a PwC Survey released just days ago, 50% of firms anticipate a RIF (reduction in force) in the next six to 12 months. This is going to continue fueling the “Quiet Quitting” (not quitting the job, just quitting going above and beyond) already taking place due to lack of a well-being, support, and growth. So what can managers do in order to keep their teams engaged, performing, and thriving?
Research stemming from what makes high-performing teams, such as with Google’s Project Aristotle, found that great managers care about and continuously promote psychological safety with their teams.
So with Psychological Safety being the is the #1 indicator of high-performing teams, why are many teams struggling to implement this? We at bestselfy have been working with companies to help teams create high Psychological Safety. So, here’s something for you to action today:
📝In your next team meeting, use this short survey to take stock of where your team is on Psychological Safety. (Tip: Take it yourself and answer this one question: How many of these habits do you recognize in your team?)
