Psychological Safety Canvas Template

—

The Psychological Safety Canvas is desgned to be used in a workshop setting to help teams evaluate and improve on psychological safety so that they can be successful and deliver better outcomes. It can used at the beginning of a project as an ideal companion for a team charter exercise. It is also suitable as a 'check-in' at different phases throughout a project to monitor your progress and ensure team morale stays high. Through a 3-stage process of 'Rate' 'Prove' and 'Improve' there are 4 areas of focus:

'Norms' and expectations
Open communication
Speaking out
Ideas and innovation

By inviting teams to do this together in a workshop (1 hour recommended) the aim is to build trust, encourage open communication, and promote collaboration within a group.
