Psychological safety is when colleagues feel safe to be their full selves at work, in addition to feeling safe to voice opinions, thoughts, or ideas in a collaborative atmosphere. It creates a sense of trust and belonging amongst colleagues and improves employee engagement. Without psychological safety, colleagues are afraid to speak up, risks are not voiced out or overlooked which can lead to problems or even monumental disasters.
