Employee safety is being redefined. We write volumes of standard operating procedures about it. We measure it, regulate it, and insure against its risks. In the U.S. alone, organizations funnel billions into creating workplaces and environments in which employees are safe to bring their best talents. But physical safety, and added creature-comfort perks like stocked snack bars, open-air offices, and foosball tables, only do so much. They don’t adequately address an employee’s state of mind. They all but ignore employees’ psychological safety. Timothy R. Clark is the founder and CEO of LeaderFactor, a leadership consulting and training organization that works with executive teams around the world. An Oxford-trained social scientist and sought-after international authority on organizational change, Dr. Clark is the author of five books on leadership, including his newest release, The 4 Stages of Psychological Safety: Defining the Path to Inclusion and Innovation. Topics During this interview, Tim and I discuss the following topics: The Inspiration behind the bookThe four stages of psychological safety—Inclusion Safety, Learner Safety, Contributor Safety, and Challenger Safety—and what they mean for your organizationWhy your employees need to feel accepted before they’ll feel safe to contribute and be heardHow any worker can learn, regardless of aptitude, given the right environmentFour words every leader needs to live by: “No cover, no candor”How to swap the pattern of “helicopter leadership” for a culture of innovation For the complete show notes be sure to check out our website: https://leaddontboss.com/128

One of the most important questions a leader can ask themselves is: “How do I get my teams, my organization to move faster?” That is the challenge that all leaders face. This challenge grows more intense every day. Lead with Speed is the answer. This problem of speed is often disguised by other symptoms, such as “my projects cannot make an accurate prediction of when they will be done” or the stated need of “my teams need to take more risks.” The real need is not reckless risk-taking that will lead to even more problems and nishing even later. The real need is for speed. Alan Willett is the master of the “friction points” of organizations highly dependent on technology. This ranges from organizations that create world-class software products to the organization that use those products to create their own competitive advantage. Alan is the expert who transforms organizational friction points to produce positive results for the business and the people that create and use the technology. Topics During this interview, Alan and I discuss the following topics: The Inspiration behind the bookHow leaders can own the acceleratorHow leaders can avoid data analysis paralysisHow Leaders can get into the mindset for leading with speed Guest Resources If you are interested in learning more about Alan and his resources be sure to check out the following links: Connect with Alan on LinkedInBuy Lead with Speed: Fire Up Your Team, Power Your Engines of Development, and Make Your Organization on AmazonCheck out Alan’s Website For the complete show notes, be sure to check out our website: https://leaddontboss.com/127
