Agenda for the Psychological Safety Training
The training "Psychological Safety in Teams" is designed to provide you with a comprehensive understanding of the foundations, research findings, and practical applications of this essential concept.
1. Fundamentals and Background
Learn what psychological safety means and how it impacts team performance, innovation, and employee satisfaction.
You will explore the four stages of psychological safety by Timothy Clark and gain insights into research from leading experts like Amy Edmondson, Brené Brown, and Adam Grant.
Scientific insights lay the foundation for your understanding of this crucial concept.
2. Setting the Stage for Psychological Safety
In this module, we provide practical tips and strategies for introducing psychological safety to your team.
We explore arguments for establishing the concept across the organization as a key to sustainable success.
You will learn practical approaches to creating a safe environment for your team as a leader.
3. Inviting Participation
Psychological safety thrives on team members sharing their perspectives and ideas.
We show you how to create spaces where everyone feels secure to contribute, and how you, as a leader or facilitator, can foster this openness.
Interactive exercises help you remove obstacles and promote genuine collaboration.
4. Responding Productively
How feedback, mistakes, and suggestions are addressed plays a crucial role in psychological safety.
In this module, you reflect on your behavior and learn which communication styles and approaches foster an open and supportive climate.
Tools like David Rock's SCARF model help you set positive impulses even in challenging situations.
5. Applying to Your Work Context
The final module focuses on applying what you have learned to your specific work context.
Together with other participants and trainers, you will develop concrete steps to anchor psychological safety in your team or organization.
Receive practical support and feedback to sustainably integrate these insights into your daily work.
Bring Your Own Ideas & Questions
We encourage participants to bring their questions to the training. Any question and real-world example from your side will make everything you and others learn more tangible. It will also result in more energy throughout the training which is connected to better learning.

Certification for Teams & Companies
Psychological Safety as an Inhouse Seminar
Choosing an in-house Psychological Safety training, especially for groups of 8 or more people, offers significant advantages. The training can be tailored to your organization's needs, fostering alignment within the team and practical application. An in-house training provides a private setting for open discussions about the challenges your organization faces.
In-house trainings are usually more cost-effective per employee than public courses and also save on external costs, such as travel and accommodation. Additionally, these in-house trainings can be certified by various renowned organizations, adding value to your team's professional development.
In summary, in-house seminars offer customization, confidentiality (compliance), cost savings, and - if desired - recognized certification.
Psychological Safety Certification with Volume Discounts
The Agile Academy offers volume discounts for public Psychological Safety trainings, enabling our clients to achieve significant cost savings. When multiple team members (at least 3) register, volume discounts are applied, making training for larger teams more economical.
Compared to in-house seminars, these discounts provide flexibility. Team members can choose different training dates that fit their schedules, maintaining business continuity.
Essentially, volume discounts offer a cost-effective solution for high-quality Scrum Master training, combining substantial savings with convenient scheduling and making it an attractive option for companies looking to empower their teams.
Contact us with your special requirements and we are sure to offer you a custom, tailor-made solution for your training needs.
