Ep 29: Creating Psychological Safety in the Workplace

👤 Trevor Mayoh, Transformative leader in MALE-DOMINANT INDUSTRIES
🎙️ Lindsey Schultz, CEO of MRC Recruiting

Mining's toughest work doesn't just happen on site—it happens in how we lead. Trevor Mayoh shows how starting with men's mental health can unlock safer, higher-performing, more inclusive teams.

 

Host Lindsey Schultz sits down with culture-change leader Trevor Mayoh (Equity Leaders, Next Gen Men) to unpack psychological safety as a performance and safety imperative in mining. They explore why engaging men early accelerates equity, how culture makes policy real, and practical habits leaders can use today: model small vulnerabilities, weave check-ins into safety moments, challenge microaggressions, and "send later" to protect off-hours. Trevor shares data (up to 27% performance lift; 3x ROI on mental health) and field stories—from shop-floor redesigns to trust-building rituals—that turn resistance into ownership. Listeners walk away with actionable tactics for supervisors, site leads, and executives to build respectful, resilient teams that go home safe—and come back stronger.

 

Our Promise:

We aim to engage with the most creative minds in mining—from engineers and executives to environmentalists and geologists—to explore groundbreaking projects and pioneering innovations. Our discussions are designed not only to inform but to inspire action and empower our listeners to lead and innovate.
