Talk: Creating a space of appreciation and psychological safety in workplaces

In the midst of a global pandemic, the operational and structural systems of most companies have seen a major shift. As people begin working from home, work-life boundaries are beginning to blur, especially when micromanagement sets in.

How can we ensure psychological safety and build a culture of appreciation in organisations?

In this talk by Sarah Lewis, you will find out how the science of organisational excellence can be used to harness human potential. Through Positive Organisational Psychology, abilities, strengths and talent can be used to catapult performance from the baseline of normality to extraordinary and inspiring standards of excellence.

Learn how the principles of positive organisational psychology can help to create performance-oriented teams and positive-oriented business environments conducive to human flourishing.

The talk will be followed by the Course Preview of Postgraduate Diploma in Positive Organisational Psychology and Leadership, and Master of Applied Positive Psychology (MAPP).
