Uncovering Your Blind Spots?

In this episode of The Leaders Kit Bag, we’re tackling one of the biggest challenges even the most self-aware leaders face: uncovering blind spots. Using a personal story from the development of Ben AI, I share a real-life example of how a name that seemed perfectly logical on paper almost became a serious misstep, simply because the people around me didn’t feel comfortable enough to challenge it early on. We explore the real reason why valuable insights often go unspoken: a lack of psychological safety. This episode unpacks what psychological safety really means, why it’s so crucial to your team's effectiveness, and the key things we can do to accelerate it in new working relationships. You’ll learn: Why even confident teams may hesitate to speak up The two root causes of low psychological safety How to reinforce open communication by praising the right behaviour A simple strategy to accelerate trust-building in your team …all in just six minutes!  Ben AI – Free Leadership Support, 24/7 Leadership can be tough.
