Team Psychological Safety Certified Practitioner
A certification in measuring and building the single factor Google’s own research found mattered most to team performance
In partnership with Team.As.One
About this certification
Team Psychological Safety (TPS) is the shared belief among team members that it’s safe to take interpersonal risks together: to admit a mistake, ask for help, or raise a concern without fear of being shut down. In Google’s internal Project Aristotle research, covering 180 teams, psychological safety had by far the largest impact on team performance of any factor measured.
TEAM.AS.ONE’s certification, created by Dr. Peter Cauwelier based on his doctoral research and global facilitation experience, trains practitioners to measure TPS rigorously and translate the results into real interventions. More than 750 participants across 28 countries have completed the program.
KOOFA’s own team includes a TEAM.AS.ONE-certified Master Facilitator based in Korea, so this certification, and the underlying TPS survey and report, is delivered directly through KOOFA without an additional intermediary.
What you’ll learn
- Understand the foundations of TPS — its theoretical origins and the seven elements that make it up: reaction to mistakes, asking for help, appreciation, embracing diversity, dealing with issues, taking risks, and mutual support.
- Master TPS measurement — administer the seven-statement survey and interpret the report against a global benchmark database.
- Design real interventions — adjust working routines based on survey results to increase and sustain team learning and performance.
Who it’s for
- Leaders and HR professionals who want to get more out of the teams they manage.
- Consultants, facilitators, and coaches who want sustainable improvement in the teams they support, beyond the life of a single intervention.
