The language we use as leaders shapes workplace culture. It plays a critical role in psychological safety. Our words (& the way we communicate) can encourage the experimentation & risk-taking we want our teams to demonstrate for innovation & improvement. It can also stifle initiative. @tom_geraghty sets out "seven deadly sins of psychological safety" - the most common/damaging things leaders say that crush psychological safety in the workplace:
1) “That’s a terrible idea.”
2) “You should know that by now.”
3) “Whose fault is this?”
4)“Everyone is replaceable.”
5)“Don’t bring me problems, bring me solutions.”
6)“Just get it done.”
7) “Not now, I’m too busy.”

"A major element has been a closed and oppressive culture in which raising concerns by frontline staff is discouraged or ignored."
NHS staff who raise concerns about unsafe care must be protected and supported, @mancunianmedic

Dr Jayne Chidgey-Clark responds to the publication of Too Hot to Handle, by @braphumanrights and @rogerkline

#BreakingFTSUbarriers

ALT Dr Jayne Chidgey-Clark, National Guardian for the NHS: I would like to thank brap and Roger Kline for amplifying the voices of workers experiencing racism in this hard hitting and practical report. Conversations about racism are interlinked with Freedom to Speak Up because at the centre of this report remains the barrier for these workers, that speaking up is not worth it, because nothing changes, and the potential repercussions are not worth the risk.
Our latest report, authored by @JWmusesthis and @rogerkline is out today!
In it, we argue the NHS is still falling short in tackling race discrimination, with a culture of defensiveness and minimization of racism in many trusts.
