SPEAKER UPDATES

Andy Lopata is a specialist speaker on networking and social media strategy and a Professional relationships Strategist. He has a new speech about Psychological Safety in the Workplace. 

Speak Up! Creating a Culture Where People Feel Comfortable Being Vulnerable and Open

There is much focus on the importance of being vulnerable and ensuring psychological safety in the workplace. But is it that simple? It’s not possible to just tell people that it’s OK to be vulnerable and expect them to open up, most people won’t respond to that. In this three-module programme, Andy will explore what leaders can do: 

– to be more vulnerable personally and transparent with people around them and how that will enhance their status as a leader, rather than diminish it;
– as an individual leader to ensure that their teams are comfortable being open and vulnerable with them;
– to ensure that the corporate culture is one that encourages and rewards openness.
