[Product Hunt]( [Read in browser]( EVERYWHERE YOU GO… 🎶 Good morning to everyone except the weatherman. While those in Western Europe brace for heatwaves, it’s pouring in Spain and Portugal — and torrential rain in the Nevada desert has left around 70,000 Burning Man attendees stranded in the mud. Maybe the tech elite in attendance should use this as a field test for their [new ‘California Forever’ utopia]( and add stormwater drainage to wildfire protection plans.

In 2012, Google’s HR division decided to find out. They’d already observed that folks who switched up their lunch crew often were more productive (top performers network a lot); and figured out which qualities make for a great manager (clear communication and not being all up in your business). The problem? Their early research was built on the long held assumption that by combining the best people, you’d get the best team. Top people ≠top team: No matter how many teams they [studied](, Google couldn’t find any patterns in the data to explain why even teams made up exclusively of high performers could also fail — nor any evidence at all that the composition of a team made a difference. To cut a long research story short, Google eventually figured out that success had more to do with the unspoken ‘norms’ held within a given team. Specifically, successful teams behave in ways that indicate a strong sense of psychological safety. Safe to speak up: Psychological safety in organizations has been [defined]( as “a shared belief held by members of a team that the team is safe for interpersonal risk taking” — aka, “a sense of confidence that the team will not embarrass, reject or punish someone for speaking up.’’ Creating this kind of culture is no easy feat. It demands high levels of self-awareness, social sensitivity, inclusivity, and trust. Enter [Felix by moka.care](: A new [Slack]( integration designed to teach teams and managers skills like communication, stress management, and the behavioral and cognitive tools needed to foster a culture of psychological safety within an organization. “Everyone needs to be trained in the basics of mental health,” says maker [Alexis Colonna](. “Doing this via [Slack]( allows us to train a lot of people at the same time within a reasonable budget — and it takes only four minutes a week.” [Aim for greatness]( Monday, 4 September 2023 This Weekend's Top Products [Vite]( [Next generation frontend tooling]( [▲ 752+]( [Marketsy.ai]( [Single prompt - single ready to go e-store]( [▲ 652+]( [Patterns]( [Find the perfect component]( [▲ 551+]( [Bambee]( [Hire an HR manager for $99/month]( [▲ 176+](  [Promoted]( [MindPal Creator]( [Turn anything into carousel posts in a snap]( [▲ 336+]( [Aloha Daily Planner]( [Surf into organization]( [▲ 335+]( [AI Maid of Honor Speech Writing Tool]( [Your personal maid of honor speech assistant]( [▲ 321+]( [myGPTBrain]( [QnA over your personal data & bookmarks]( [▲ 298+]( [Dr. Lambda]( [Create slides with words, PDF & YouTube videos]( [▲ 286+]( [AI-Powered Form Generator]( [Craft your forms swiftly using AI, no coding required]( [▲ 284+]( [Hoppscotch Self-Host]( [Open-source API development — now on-premise!]( [▲ 252+]( [Discover many more]( CAT NIPS - [Singify]( lets you create AI song covers with your favorite artists. - [Papermark]( is an open-source alternative to [DocSend](. - [Snipo]( takes time-stamped notes in [Notion]( while you watch videos. - [Audiosonic]( converts text to lifelike audio.
