Safe space

Daniel Mezick emphasizes the importance of psychological safe space in his book The Culture Game: Tools for the Agile Manager. I find this very interesting and think that Daniel is right when he writes on that:

“This psychological safety is one of (if not THE) most important aspects of developing a Learning Organization.” (p. 55)

An area which I want to explore further is the relationship between psychological safety and domination structures. Also, I see a connection between the creation of safe space and Nonviolent Communication. Domination structures are built upon punishment & rewards. Another way of saying this is that domination is built upon lack of psychological safety.
