Program Overview
CEG's Virtual Leadership Learning Journey is
comprised of five 3-hour sessions. The sessions

SESSION 1
LAYING THE FOUNDATION
Building and Maintaining Psychological Safety
(3-hours)
A work culture of psychological safety fosters true
learning, critical thinking, innovation, and growth.
It creates an environment of "rewarded vulnera-

does it take to create and sustain psychological

—and take away from—a positive, productive, and
healthy work culture
