Speak Inarguably: Leadership Communication for Psychological Safety and Team Engagement

OD Partnership Series - with Triangle ODN

Christopher Arnold

This training will be conducted live via Zoom. The zoom meeting details will be sent out prior to the training.

Workplace conflict can arise even when everyone involved has the best of intentions. What's commonly considered "professional communication" encourages leaders to express arguable opinions as inarguable facts. When combined with positional power, this style of communication creates a psychologically unsafe environment. In response, colleagues feel the need to defend, explain, and raise their voices to feel heard -- increasing the chances of an unproductive conflict. Alternatively, colleagues can go silent and disengage from work. Both strategies -- silence and violence -- create an unhealthy work environment. 

When leaders speak arguably, they get resistance. When leaders speak inarguably they get safety, engagement, and results.
