AGILE LEADERSHIP AND PSYCHOLOGICAL SAFETY AS THE FOUNDATION FOR DEVELOPING GREEN SKILLS

Abstract

The article explores the theoretical foundations of the relationship between Agile leadership, psychological safety, and the development of green skills in the social sector. It emphasizes that effective governance in education, social development, and community initiatives requires a shift from traditional hierarchical models to flexible, adaptive, and value-driven leadership approaches. Agile leadership fosters psychologically safe environments where ecological awareness, collective responsibility, and social engagement – key components of green competencies – can flourish. The potential of this model is highlighted in the context of post-crisis recovery, instability, and the transformation of social institutions in Ukraine.
