Encourage Your Brain: The Neuroscience Behind Psychological Safety & ICF Core Competency #3

In this month’s Encourage Your Brain, Susan explores the key role that psychological safety plays in the coaching process — specifically as it relates to ICF Core Competency #3. Drawing on insights from thought leader Amy Edmondson, we examine how creating psychological safety in coaching allows for honest and vulnerable conversations without the fear of negative consequences.

We also delve into the neuroscience behind the what and how of psychological safety, exploring the Blue Zone and Red Zone states and the impact they can have on neural circuitry. Through a focus on both the WHAT and HOW of psychological safety, we highlight the importance of creating a space where clients can navigate conversations in their own way, tackling even sensitive or uncertain topics with respect and nonjudgmental support.

Join us as we explore the power of psychological safety and its potential to bring about breakthroughs in the coaching process.
