About this listen
The Fearless Organization offers practical guidance for teams and organizations who are serious about success in the modern economy. With so much riding on innovation, creativity, and spark, it is essential to attract and retain quality talent - but what good does this talent do if no one is able to speak their mind? The traditional culture of "fitting in" and "going along" spells doom in the knowledge economy. Success requires a continuous influx of new ideas, new challenges, and critical thought, and the interpersonal climate must not suppress, silence, ridicule, or intimidate.
Not every idea is good, and yes, there are stupid questions, and yes, dissent can slow things down, but talking through these things is an essential part of the creative process. People must be allowed to voice half-finished thoughts, ask questions from left field, and brainstorm out loud; it creates a culture in which a minor flub or momentary lapse is no big deal and where actual mistakes are owned and corrected, and where the next left-field idea could be the next big thing.
This audiobook explores this culture of psychological safety and provides a blueprint for bringing it to life. The road is sometimes bumpy, but succinct and informative scenario-based explanations provide a clear path forward to constant learning and healthy innovation.

good
easy to listen to
doesn't go through much of the how, very high level, not much to work through on practical application.

Bringing common psychological safety to the forefront
It was a good easy to understand book, what would be helpful are some PDFs to help people use the content in real life.

Could be shorter
This isn't a long book, but I feel the first 6 chapters could have been covered in 3, without losing any value; otherwise, it was easy to listen to and concepts easy to follow and understand. The final chapter being a FAQ wasn't a bad idea and I can see how it could be used to overcome objections or to promote personal and group engagement and responsibility for creating psychological safety within the workplace.
