The Predictive Index People Management Report indicated that 63% of those thinking of resigning, it is due to a lack of psychological safety. Psychological safety is also regarded as a necessary foundation for an employee wellbeing strategy. Given that employee wellbeing is believed to be top of the agenda for 2022, developing psychological safety in organisations becomes critical to create a sustainable performance environment.

Research has shown that when individuals do not feel psychologically safe, they do not  bring their whole self to work, they withhold contribution, become less creative,less collaborative, they self-censor and self-silence. Lack of psychological safety stop people from learning actively on the job to develop their capabilities and those of their team. Overtime lack of psychological safety impacts individual well-being. With rising cases of well-being issues in he workplace, building psychological safety can contribute to improved well-being and performance
