However, only 43% of employees indicate a positive team climate at work, only 30% see a reason to say something when they see something is wrong, and only 30% believe their opinion

If you lead a team then I would hazard a guess that you and your team have weathered an emergency, crisis or surprise… or two. When facing a tough situation, it’s important not only to keep going during it but also to come out the other side relatively unscathed and still performing.
