Exercises for Psychological Safety

Psychological safety exercises give people a low risk way to speak, be seen, and test participation norms before the heavier work starts. They strengthen Participation Architecture, helping quieter voices find an entry point. Use them when trust is still forming and the room needs permission before candor.

This category groups exercises by relationship stage, one of the eight purposes the library is organized around.
