Building a culture of psychological safety and healthy feedback
Turn Workplace Conflict into Your Strategic Advantage
You've probably felt it. The meeting that ends with more tension than answers. The comment you keep replaying on the drive home. The same issue that comes back no matter how many times you talk it through.
Conflict at work is normal. Some of it comes from people, and some comes from the way work is designed. Either way, when conflict is handled in a healthy way, it can become a source of your team's best ideas. That starts with psychological safety, a culture where people feel safe to speak up, disagree, and share feedback.
Join us for a free, one-hour webinar on Wednesday, October 21, at 12pm EDT. You'll learn how to find the root of conflict on your team and reframe it as an opportunity for innovation and growth. We'll also look at how to build the kind of feedback culture that keeps conflict productive.

What You'll Learn
What You’ll Learn
Some conflict is built into the way work gets done. Competing priorities and reward systems can pit people and teams against each other. When that’s the case, even the healthiest conversations won’t make the conflict go away.
Other times, conflict is rooted in people. And it often starts with the conversation happening in our own heads.
“They’re going to think I’m overreacting.”
“If I bring this up, it will only make things worse.”
“I’m sure they did that on purpose.”
Sound familiar?
These are the stories we tell ourselves. Most of us want to know right away if we did something that didn’t sit well with someone. Yet when the roles are reversed, we hold back. We assume the worst and let small issues grow.
Different personalities also bring different conflict styles. What one person sees as an honest conversation, another may hear as an attack. Often the gap is less about what was said and more about how it was said.
The good news is that psychological safety and a strong feedback culture can prevent much of this. When Google studied 180 of its teams, psychological safety ranked as the most important factor in team effectiveness. People on those teams were rated as effective by executives twice as often. That’s what turns conflict into a strategic advantage.
This session will explore:
- How to identify whether a conflict is rooted in a system, a personality, or both
- How to depersonalize conflict and get out of your own head before a hard conversation
- How to strengthen the skills that keep conflict healthy, including emotional intelligence, listening, and feedback
- How to build a culture of psychological safety and feedback that turns conflict into innovation and growth
You’ll also have time for Q&A.
