Psychological safety team session

Before the session

Read Days 54, 55 and 56 (about five minutes each), or Module 6 on the cheat sheet.

The 30 minutes

1. 0–5 minOpen

   Quick round: one small mistake you made recently that you're happy to share.

2. 5–15 minDiscuss three days
   • Day 54: How you respond is the whole game.What happened the last time someone here raised bad news, and would they do it again?
   • Day 55: Ask how it made sense at the time.When things go wrong, do our reviews ask who or how, and what would a blameless review change?
   • Day 56: Fight about ideas, not people.Where does our disagreement turn personal, and how do we get back to the work?
3. 15–25 minExercise: Rewrite the response

   Each person writes down one real moment when someone here raised a concern or a mistake, and how it was met. Pick two and rewrite the response using Day 54: thank, engage, close the loop. Agree one phrase the team will use next time.

4. 25–30 minAction for the week

   Each person closes the loop on one thing a colleague raised recently, telling them what happened because they spoke up.

   Agree the team rule: “Fight about ideas, not people.”
