WHO IS THIS MASTERCLASS FOR?
We all want to work in an environment where it feels safe to bring our real selves into interactions with our team members – one where it’s not personally costly to make mistakes or ask questions.
Emotional Intelligence and Psychological Safety is everybody’s business – whether you’re a team member anxious to create a better working environment for you and your colleagues, or a team leader or manager tasked with bringing a team together for great results, this will be a great use of your time. Also, if you’re a coach, consultant or trainer supporting team leaders and members striving to create high-performance teams, this is a must-see session.

THE LINK BETWEEN PSYCHOLOGICAL SAFETY AND EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
In this 90-minute masterclass, we'll be talking about:
- Experience how the brain processes work in environments that are psychologically safe vs. those that are psychologically unsafe.
- Uncover guidance on how to make those around you feel safe.
- The evidence linking psychological safety to pretty much every aspect of how highly successful teams function.
- The neuroscience of emotions and why it is so important to our sense of psychological safety that we all learn to manage our own emotional responses and those of others.
- 'The EI Experience', an interactive activity that outlines why understanding how you 'show up' is so critical – and demonstrating how an environment can become psychologically unsafe if we don’t understand what’s going on.
- See how the way you personally ‘show up’ is the most powerful tool you have for influencing the psychological safety of your team.
- Access to a complimentary Genos Emotional Intelligence Assessment to understand how you currently show up.'

A HOT TOPIC - THE RESEARCH
Psychological Safety and Emotional Intelligence... these two critical topics have become even more important in light of the pandemic and a dramatic shift in how we work. We thrive when we feel psychologically safe – in environments that:
“…respect us and allow us to feel included, feel safe to learn, feel safe to contribute, and feel safe to challenge the status quo. If we can’t do these things, if it’s emotionally expensive, fear shuts us down. We’re not happy and we’re not reaching our potential. But when the environment nurtures psychological safety, there’s an explosion of confidence, engagement, and performance.”
Timothy Clarke, author of ‘The 4 Stages of Psychological Safety’
Psychological safety at work is essential to create an environment where connection, trust, collaboration and innovation allow teams to achieve the highest levels of connection and performance.
In this uncertain time, this sense of psychological safety is more important than ever – as we try to rally teams who are separated and trying to still work together from their homes.
At the same time, research organisations are continually publishing upon the value of emotional intelligence skills as THE core differentiator for individuals and organisations in our increasingly AI-enabled world.
Harvard Business Review recently said “The rise of AI makes Emotional Intelligence more important…skills like persuasion, social understanding, and empathy are going to become differentiators as artificial intelligence and machine learning take over other tasks.”, and the World Economic Forum has identified Emotional Intelligence as one of the key skills for survival from 2020 onwards.
