A common misperception about #psychologicalsafety is that it means lowering standards, giving up on #accountability, or "everyone being wrapped in cotton wool."

I love a good 2 x 2 matrix... so here's mine, brought to life by @tnvora, #sketchnote artist supreme. Image
Clearly, the place to be is the upper right quadrant, where people are not afraid to have the #difficultconversations that bring real progress.

Those conversations flow upward as well as downward, in an atmosphere of respect that ALSO goes both ways.
This has been my periodic reminder re: what #psychologicalsafetyisnot. I've spilled a lot of ink on that subject; there are some sticky misperceptions there that are probably not going away.

But I hope this helps. And it does have an impressive ink-to-insight ratio :)

1/11 I, like so many others, was and am deeply troubled by the now-retracted JAHA "diversity" article and what it purports to represent, and what it does represent, which are entirely different. Kudos to @DrQuinnCapers4 for his leadership, and that of many others. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
2/11 Personally, the articleโ€”and more importantly, the mindset it reflectsโ€”is repugnant to me. As an Asian American physician, it is all the more painful and embarrassing for me to read. Itโ€™s like your racist relative ruining the big holiday happiness. ๐Ÿฆƒ๐Ÿท๐Ÿฅง๐Ÿงง๐Ÿงง
3/11 But clearly, there are people who think this way, that applaud the โ€œdataโ€, that feel that they are somehow exposing the elephant in the room that they think is inclusion efforts or affirmative action or any other means to ensure diversity in medicine . . . ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€โš•๏ธ๐Ÿ‘จโ€โš•๏ธ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿฟโ€โš•๏ธ๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿฟโ€โš•๏ธ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿปโ€โš•๏ธ๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿผโ€โš•๏ธ๐Ÿ˜ท
