Team safety measurement

Seven statements about safety and three questions about your last meeting, two minutes. The statements are the seven-item model of Amy Edmondson (1999), scored from 1 to 5. Never measure safety alone: that is why sharpness sits right beside it.

How it works as a team measurement. You fill it in individually and see your own picture right away. The real result emerges when your whole team fills it in with the same team code: then we compose the team picture, with the average and the spread, because a team in which everyone scores 3.8 is a different team from one that averages 3.8 with outliers down to 2.

Think of your last meeting

Safety without outcomes is a comfort zone. So three questions about your team’s last meeting. Tick what happened.

Your picture

Why this is only half the story. This is your experience of the team, and it counts. But safety is by definition a team matter: the interesting part is in the average and in how far the scores diverge. Have your whole team fill in this measurement with the same team code, and we send the team picture.

Receive the team picture

Fill in a team code, a word you choose yourselves, and pass it on to your team members. As soon as there are three or more with the same code, we compose the team picture.

Fill in a team code, your name, a valid e-mail address, and your phone number, and tick the consent box.

Which measurement is this?

Your score goes directly to me and is used only for the team picture at team level. No newsletter, no spam. The team picture is shared with the whole team, never with individual scores in it; to the board and the client go only key points, never scores as assessment. Privacy policy

Item set according to the handbook of diagnostic and measurement instruments (appendix A.3, adopted October 12, 2026): the seven items of Edmondson, A.C. (1999) ‘Psychological Safety and Learning Behavior in Work Teams’, Administrative Science Quarterly, 44(2); the sharpness questions from Stop Solving (Campman, 2026), chapter 15. The same seven statements as in the Team Scan, so both measurements are comparable. This is an indication for the conversation, not an assessment of people.

Your score counts toward the team picture

As soon as three or more team members have filled in with the same team code, you receive the team picture: average, spread, and sharpness alongside, and what that means.

Two questions for the team conversation, to begin with. What makes it easy or difficult in your team to put something difficult on the table? And what would have to change first to change that? Bring them along: the team picture is the starting point; the conversation is the intervention.
