Abstract
In today’s intricate and competitive business landscape, organizations must leverage robust strategies and exhibit agility to thrive. The effective implementation of these strategies is pivotal and fundamentally anchored in human capital, which operates best within a supportive organizational environment. A key component of this environment is psychological safety—the assurance that team members can voice their ideas and engage in risk-taking without the dread of negative repercussions. Leadership is instrumental in cultivating this psychological safety, fostering an atmosphere conducive to collaboration, innovation, and continuous learning. This literature review highlights the critical role of psychological safety in the efficacy of strategy implementation, asserting that leaders have a responsibility to intentionally create a constructive environment. Such a space invites and values employee contributions, thereby driving organizational success through effective strategy implementation.
