WISH Webinar FREE for Members: Psychological Safety Starts at the Top - How Senior Leaders Shape Cultures (Hayley)

This 90 minute webinar is for senior managers who want to understand the real influence they have on culture—whether they intend to or not.

Grounded in compassionate leadership and psychological safety, it explores how day-to-day behaviours at the top shape trust, accountability and performance across the organisation.

You’ll look beyond policies and values statements to examine the signals senior leaders send under pressure, how power and hierarchy affect openness, and what it truly takes to create conditions where people speak up, take responsibility and do their best work.

Expect thoughtful challenge, practical reflection, and clear, human insights you can apply immediately to strengthen culture from the top down.

Your Host: Hayley Gillard
