As a Clinical Associate Professor of Psychiatry and Psychologist/Psychoanalyst with decades of experience, I bring to the corporate/business world an unusual and invaluable psychological perspective.

Sylvia S. Welsh, Ph.D.
Businesses, small and large, are complex, dynamic interpersonal systems. Every company, from those on the Fortune 500 to small, medium-sized and family-owned businesses, functions as system. When a successful company falters it is, without fail, a result of a breakdown in this “system”. Employees, managers, the CEO or President, each or all of them may be unknowingly contributing to a dysfunctional system wherein the individuals and, thus, the company fails to achieve its full potential.
