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
