Performance, Forgiveness, and Fair Play in Teams
We’ve all heard the phrase: “You’re only as good as your last performance.” It’s often used to push for high standards and continuous effort. But what if we flipped it? What if it also meant that “you’re only as bad as your last performance”?
Caution Grasshopper!
Imagine if our workplace teammates agreed that one could pause a conversation, using a 1.Caution, instead of reacting angrily, or suppressing our feelings of injustice, when we were experiencing some unfair treatment? And, if the person who was infringing on us ignored or challenged our caution, we could then up the ante by 2.Objecting to their behavior. If still no result, we could agree to 3.Stop the conversation and allow our peers to adjudicate our conflict. All without allowing our emotions to interfere in our spat. I think it is possible.

Why Managers Shouldn’t Have to Design Their Own Systems
Pilots fly planes—they don’t design, build, or maintain them. Their focus is on safely operating a complex system that’s been meticulously designed by experts. Yet in management, we often expect managers to create and implement their own systems for team dynamics, decision-making, and behavior management. Why?
Promoting Civility Vs Addressing Incivility: A Smoke Detector Approach to Preventing Toxic Conflict
Most psychological safety experts emphasize promoting civility in workplace teams as the foundation for a healthy and productive environment. They focus on fostering respect, kindness, and understanding. However, in my opinion, promoting a culture of civility is complex, requires leaders to be ideal role models, and is time-consuming and expensive.
Goldilocks and the Three Steps to Psychological Safety and Fairness
Psychological safety, in my opinion, is all about striking the right balance—like the Goldilocks principle, where feedback is not too harsh, not too soft, but just right. Offering feedback in a way that is fair is crucial to maintaining this balance.
