Are people hiding from you at work? A conversation with Daniel Maxson, Corporate Safety Director

In today's thought-provoking episode, we had the privilege of interviewing a very special guest, Daniel Maxson, Corporate Safety Director of New South Construction. Daniel takes you on an empowering journey and shares invaluable core values that lie beneath psychological safety at work. Psychological safety is not just a buzzword; it's a crucial aspect of any inclusive work culture. As we navigate through our professional lives, it's essential to consider what it truly means to feel safe in our work environments. Do we feel comfortable expressing our concerns, making mistakes or having a voice? Think about the start of your workday. Take a moment to look around you. What kind of culture are you contributing to with your colleagues? Are there people hiding from you, or perhaps do you find yourself hiding from certain colleagues? These questions may seem simple, but they hold immense importance. After all, we spend a significant portion of our lives at work—often a minimum of 40 hours each week. Remember, investing in your self-care from this perspective is not only beneficial for your professional life but also for your overall happiness and fulfillment. Tune in to this episode and discover how you can make a positive impact on your work culture and, ultimately, yourself.
