Creating Psychological Safety: How to Identify and Mitigate Workplace Hazard

Send us a textIn this week's episode of Discover Fresh Perspectives, we're joined by Philip Be'er, who shares his expertise on the concept of an amygdala hijack. Together with our host, David Gouthro, they explore how our brains respond instinctively to perceived threats and how these reactions influence our daily lives and workplace environments. We delve into the physiological and psychological aspects of fight, flight, and freeze responses, and the often-overlooked impact these can have on productivity and relationships. Whether it's navigating sarcasm in a professional setting or addressing personal emotional triggers, Philip provides valuable perspectives on fostering psychological safety and creating more compassionate, engaged workspaces. Tune in for a fascinating discussion that promises to change how you view human behaviour and interaction.Philip's Website: https://advantagesofmediation.caPhilip's BioPhilip Be'er is a thought leader who explores the primal instincts of human behaviour, drawing parallels between the survival mechanisms of animals and the responses of people to perceived threats in their environment. He delves into the physiological and psychological reactions that define the fight, flight, freeze, and fawn responses—universal reflexes that activate when individuals face potential dangers. By simplifying these responses, Be'er offers a nuanced understanding of human behaviour during crisis situations, emphasizing how our bodies instinctively prepare to protect us through increased heart rates, perspiration, and other innate reactions. Through his work, Philip Be'er provides insights into the parallels between human and animal instincts, offering a unique perspective on our natural coping mechanisms.*************************************************************** You can connect with David Gouthro at: Website:https://davidgouthro.com/ (where you can also subscribe to my Blog) LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidgouthro/ NOTE: If you wish to join in the podcast fun, please click here to book your own episode with me: https://calendly.com/gouthro/podcast-pals!
