Event Description

Construction projects rely on people speaking up. Workers need to raise safety concerns, challenge decisions when necessary, report mistakes, ask questions, and share ideas. Yet many construction workplaces still struggle with cultures where people remain silent due to fear of embarrassment, conflict, retaliation, or being perceived as weak.

This practical and engaging lunch-and-learn explores psychological safety through a construction lens and demonstrates why the most successful project teams are often the ones where people feel safe to speak up.

Participants will leave with practical tools to strengthen trust, communication, accountability, and team performance on the job site.

 
 

Learning Outcomes

 

Participants will:

  • Understand what psychological safety is- and what it is not.
  • Recognize the hidden costs of silence on construction projects.
  • Identify leadership behaviours that encourage workers to speak up.
  • Learn practical strategies for creating stronger communication and trust on site.
  • Understand the connection between psychological safety, safety performance, quality, productivity, and retention.
