About this Event
Psychological safety is widely misunderstood — especially in Asian contexts where hierarchy, face, harmony, and collectivism shape behaviour differently from Western assumptions.
This session will:
- Challenge imported narratives of psychological safety
- Examine misuse and oversimplification in Asian organisations
- Equip facilitators to work with cultural nuance rather than against it
