This event, Psychological Safety: Beyond the Buzzword in Project Delivery, takes a practical and honest look at what psychological safety really means in the context of delivering projects, programmes, and portfolios. It moves beyond theory to explore the real behaviours, signals, and environments that either enable or undermine open communication.

We will examine common delivery challenges such as “green” reporting masking underlying issues, the impact of fear on escalation, and the unintended consequences of traditional governance approaches. More importantly, we will focus on what can be done differently, at individual, team, and leadership levels, to create conditions where people feel able to speak up early, challenge constructively, and contribute fully.

The session will provide actionable insights and practical takeaways that can be applied immediately, helping to reduce delivery risk, improve transparency, and ultimately enhance project outcomes.
