Is your business looking to work in an agile way? Harvard Business Review notes that "agile does not work without psychological safety."
They go on to explain: "Agile processes and tools provide support, but the central weight-bearing mechanism of the agile approach is not the scrum or the sprint. Rather, it’s the team’s dialogic process — the way team members interact — that ultimately determines success."
