Practical strategies for a psychologically healthy and safe workplace (#18)

Mary Ann Baynton 1
  1. Workplace Strategies for Mental Health, Waterdown, Ontario, Canada

Going beyond dealing with problems as they arise to helping employees and your  organization flourish is a positive psychology approach. Each of the positive psychology components tracks beautifully to what constitutes a psychologically healthy and safe workplace:

P – Positive Emotion – Organizational culture has a lot of influence on this

E – Engagement – Psychologically safe leadership can improve and sustain this

R – Positive Relationships – Team building can create this

M – Meaning – Supportive performance management can facilitate this

A – Accomplishments/Achievements – Recognition and reward can celebrate this

V – Vitality – the intention of psychological health and safety is to maximize the energy and focus of all employees, even on a bad day

This session will give you some practical tools, strategies and resources to do this. And for those who may also apply for the CPPA Canadian Work and Well-being Award, this session can help you make the links between what you already do well and what qualifies you for this award. Whether you are a leader, HR professional or a consultant, this session will give you what you need to start using positive psychology in your practice.
