Psychosocial Safety in the workplace with The WID Factor
Do your leaders know how to minimise psychosocial risks and engage employees for effective business outcomes?
SafeWork Australia – as of August 2022, regulated workplaces to proactively address psychosocial (emotional and social) hazards. This means leaders need to be able to recognise and minimise these risks.

Evidence of the impact the of Psychological Safety
“...a longitudinal study by Google’s People Analytics Unit found that their highest performing teams shared one norm: psychological safety. In these teams, people felt free to share the things that worried or concerned them without fear of embarrassment, rejection, recrimination...”
How it works!
The WID Factor presents a simple, yet profound understanding of human personality and what motivates us to do what we do.
The WID Factor Psychological Safety workshop:
- Helps you discover the three centres of intelligence – the head, the heart and the gut and how this centre determines your wellbeing needs at work
- Encourages an understanding of the specific needs attached to these centres and how to get these needs fulfilled for increased team trust and psychological safety
- Supports the team to identify easy to apply strategies to create a safe team environment
Each workshop starts with an online personality questionnaire which produces a personalised a 46-page WID report.
Trainers use the WID Framework, which identifies the three centres of Intelligence - Head, Heart and Gut, for team-based solutions that support:
- self-awareness
- improved trust and communication
- increased collaboration
- increased connectivity
All of which are proactive in preventing psychosocial hazards.
"The key to personal freedom"
My behaviour and your behaviour might look the same, but why I do what I do might be completely different.
WID doesn't just look at behaviours, it looks behind the behaviours to core motivation, to why you do what you do. This is the key to personal freedom.
