We all want a culture where employees speak up. But what happens when they actually do? In this session, Sam Garven explores how to build systems that make it easier for people to raise concerns—and for leaders to respond well. Drawing on her work at Hello Canopy and as a founding member of Grapevine, Sam shares what helps, what hurts, and what builds trust. You’ll leave with a toolkit for making safety real, not theoretical—even when you’re still building the basics.
