The Research Behind Trauma-Informed Leadership
Psychological Safety Drives Performance:
Research from Google's Project Aristotle found that teams with high psychological safety outperform others in innovation, collaboration, and engagement (Google, 2019).
The Cost of Ignoring Trauma:
The American Institute of Stress estimates that workplace stress costs U.S. companies over $300 billion annually in absenteeism, turnover, and lost productivity (AIS, 2023).
Employee Well-being Affects Retention:
A Gallup study found that employees who feel supported in their well-being are 69% less likely to seek new jobs (Gallup, 2022).
Trauma-Informed Leadership Improves Engagement:
Organizations prioritizing trauma-informed principles see a 76% increase in employee engagement and a 50% reduction in turnover (Harvard Business Review, 2021).
Workplace Trauma and Chronic Stress Impact Health:
The World Health Organization (WHO) classifies workplace burnout as an occupational phenomenon, with over 60% of employees reporting that workplace stress affects their performance (WHO, 2022).
By implementing trauma-informed leadership practices, organizations not only enhance employee well-being but also drive innovation, reduce conflict, and improve overall performance. Leaders trained in these practices are better equipped to navigate crises, build resilient teams, and foster a culture of trust and inclusion.
