Joriene Beks
Expert in creating Psychological Safety.
Joriene Beks (1976) uses her extensive practical experience and knows how to set people and teams in motion to achieve this in a well-founded, enthusiastic and sober way.
Psychological safety links trust with candor and the desire to make a difference. It gives employees a sense of belonging, encourages them to express their views, openly discuss mistakes made, and contribute promising ideas. It leads to demonstrable improvements in ownership, collaboration, learning, creativity and performance.
Hans van der Loo and Joriene Beks have written a book that makes you think about psychological safety. The book inspires and stimulates to get started with creating a safe and at the same time flaming work culture. To show the courage from now on to simply share your opinion within your team. But also to dare to be vulnerable and to openly talk about mistakes made. To dare to speak to others. To take the freedom to spread new ideas.
This book tells you how to succeed and what bumps and obstacles you may encounter along the way. With practically applicable tools to create bold teams.
Next year there will be an online masterclass. You will be taken into the world of psychological safety. You learn where it comes from and what it is and what it is not.
