How Our Psychological Resilience Is Affected by Our Perception of Psychological Safety
Psychological resilience is often framed as an individual trait—but it is deeply shaped by the environments in which people work. This session explores the powerful relationship between resilience and psychological safety: the extent to which people feel able to speak up, admit mistakes, and be themselves without fear. Drawing on therapeutic, operational, and lived experience, the panel will examine how perceptions of safety influence stress, performance, and recovery in high-risk roles.
Delegates will leave with a clearer understanding of how leaders and organisations can create conditions that strengthen resilience—not by hardening people, but by building cultures of trust and support.
