“Micro things matter. Don’t let the name fool you. Microlearning is very important for behavior change.”

Microlearning can be incredibly useful in creating psychological safety—where team members feel safe to express their ideas without fear of repercussion. The reason is that, to create a psychologically safe environment, we need to adapt behaviors to ensure that everyone on the team feels valued and heard. Through my experiences, both as a professional athlete and an entrepreneur, I've seen firsthand how using microlearning can drive these behavior changes, enhancing camaraderie, and boosting overall team performance.

Practical tips for using microlearning for psychological safety

Enhance belonging and team cohesion

The first step towards establishing psychological safety is ensuring all team members feel a sense of belonging. Microlearning can facilitate this by integrating activities that promote team bonding. One fun, and useful, method is to use a "colleague manual" that can be quickly created via 7taps. It's a way for team members to get to know each other through quick, engaging videos and exercises that break the ice and foster connection.

Provide immediate, practical tools

To drive behavior change, introduce quick, actionable tools that teams can implement immediately. Before meetings, distribute microlearning modules that encourage practices like sharing personal updates or using language that invites diverse perspectives. This not only boosts engagement but also creates a more inclusive meeting environment.

Lead by example

The impact of microlearning is significantly amplified when leaders actively participate and demonstrate the behaviors they wish to see within their team. Just like greeting teammates with a handshake can transform locker room dynamics, leaders who engage with microlearning set a tone of openness and adaptability that others naturally follow.
