Trust vs. Psychological Safety: What Leaders Get Wrong
Description
What’s the real difference between trust and psychological safety? Most leaders think having trust on their team is enough, but they’re missing half the picture. In this episode, Junior and Tim explain why teams can trust their leaders yet still feel unsafe to speak up, breaking down the critical distinction between positive predictability (trust) and rewarded vulnerability (psychological safety). Through real-world examples and practical advice, they reveal how trust only gets people to show up, while psychological safety gets them to speak up, and why both are essential for high-performing, innovative teams. If you want to learn how to build a culture where people show up, speak up, and contribute their best ideas, this conversation is for you.
