How much do you trust the team?
summary
Teams split into small teams (3–5) at one bank case study and the concrete claim is that psychological safety is the single strongest predictor of effectiveness (Google Project Aristotle). Trust breaks down into three checks—ability, benevolence, shared values—illustrated by a tandem-paraglider who has 20 years experience. Measurable surprises include classic conformity results where about 32% conformity appears in line-length tests. Practical moves: icebreakers, speaking tokens, rotate shiny work, and social volunteering to expand trust and reduce fear of judgment.
