🎧 New Episode Alert: Why fear cannot build psychological safety
"You cannot build psychological safety with the same tools that created psychological harm".
In this episode, we dive into Dr Shungu M'gadzah's powerful concept of the SSF Change Paradox. This paradox occurs when a system seeks a positive outcome—like trust, inclusion, and openness—while continuing to use negative methods built around fear, control, and punishment.
Are you trying to fix your workplace culture using the very tools that broke it? Sometimes, organisations appear to be working hard to repair their culture, but using defensive and punitive methods is like discovering cracks in a building and repeatedly striking the walls with a pickaxe. It creates noise and movement, but the underlying foundations remain unexamined and each intervention just creates further fractures.
Tune in as we discuss why meaningful change requires systems to set down the weapons of fear, status, punishment, and control before genuine dialogue can begin. We also explore three vital questions through the Six Stages Framework to help you identify if your stated destination and methods are travelling in opposite directions.
