Have you heard of the term 'impression management?' I hadn't. It's a term that describes the very human process of self-filtering, something we all do to try and control how others perceive us, and it starts as early as childhood.

In the episode, executive coach Karen Stein shares her knowledge of psychological safety, and how we can provide the right conditions to amplify the possibilities and potential in the people we work with, young and old. If you're looking for practical, evidence based tips to build belonging, creativity, courage and compassion in your learning space, then brew yourself a cuppa and grab a pen! This one's for you.
