I had the good fortune to present a virtual session to The Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of Alberta (APEGA) on Psychological Safety In The Workplace.

A significant part of the discussion was about the vitally important topic of creating safe spaces for marginalized groups such as women, indigenous peoples and people of colour.

We must recognize the blindness that comes with privilege.

Let’s stay self-aware of ways we make it unsafe for people and keep the conversations going. Let’s be open to feedback about how our actions impact others and continually learn and be open to change.
