Psychodynamic Management Consulting
For many leaders, reaching the pinnacle of their careers often becomes an isolating experience as they must grapple independently with the complexities of leading an organization and balancing multifaceted business priorities. In my assessment and coaching practice, I act as a sounding board and confidential advisor to senior leaders as they navigate through the uncertainties, ambiguities and complexities of their roles and works individually with them to build their repertoire of executive competencies.
By uncovering leadership gaps and developing actionable strategies to address them, my long term coaching partnerships provide executives with continuous support to improve their overall leadership effectiveness and achieve their personal development and career aspirations.
What is Psychodynamic Management Consulting?
As described by the Boswell Group, Psychodynamic Management Consulting is distinguished by its psychologically-informed focus on a company’s most valuable asset: its people and its culture.
While a traditional management consultant can offer important guidance in strategic and other areas of the business, a psychodynamic management consultant is primarily an expert on human behavior and motivation in the organizational setting. This enables trained coaches to address a range of issues outside the purview of traditional business consulting, such as helping leaders learn to use sophisticated psychological strategies in leading, managing and negotiating; removing obstacles to more effective communication and collaboration in management teams; assisting family businesses in untangling complex family dynamics that threaten succession or the business as a whole; and any other areas of business life that have important psychological underpinnings.
