Much like how PPE 🥽, proper training 📚, and clear protocols 📝 keep us safe at work, protecting our brain is equally as important 🧠 In our new study that focuses on trainees within the academic medical center, we found that psychological safety is driven by belonging, recognition, and respect. But here’s the key: getting there means digging deeper into what truly drives these feelings. ✅ Trust and confidence in mentors or supervisors influences trainees' sense of belonging and respect ✅ Trainee perception of organizational support plays a crucial role in fostering recognition and belonging ✅ Clarity in role expectations and autonomy were important for fostering a sense of recognition Whether you're a leader of graduate students and postdocs, or medical students, residents, and fellows - fostering psychological safety in demanding research-intensive or clinical settings is essential for trainee success. What are you doing to support #PsychologicalSafety in your trainees? Thank you to the team that made this paper possible - David Rogers, Katherine A. Meese, Ph.D, Katherine Sweeney, Christine Loyd, PhD, Megan Hays, Ph.D., ABPP, FAACVPR, and Robert Estes.

Psychological safety is like a monument in the center of a thriving workforce. Its pillars of #Belonging, #Recognition, and #Respect are embedded in a foundation of organizational support, trust in leadership, and autonomy & role clarity. Without its supports, the monument will collapse. Dr. Laurence Boitet's latest study dives into key factors that shape psychological safety for trainees, giving leaders evidence-based insights into supporting a thriving future workforce. Read the full study to learn how supporting trainees' sense of safety can elevate group dynamics and organizational outcomes. https://lnkd.in/eN-kKXvM #PsychologicalSafety #TraineeWellness #LearningEnvironments
