Student on Advanced practice and research: consultation and the organisation (D10D)
“I completed a Master’s degree in Strategic Leadership at the Tavistock and Portman some years back and benefitted then from the richer perspective that systems-psychodynamic approaches brought to my leadership roles. I joined the Advanced practice and research: consultation and the organisation (D10D) doctorate programme to help me make sense of my experience of working in public sector organisations. I find the course academically stimulating, and enjoy the forums and spaces provided for thinking, feeling and experiencing group dynamics. I appreciate the space to ‘stop and think’, as well as the rich reading and access to resources to enhance my knowledge base.
The course has had an impact on my life both personally and professionally. On a personal level, I feel much more sighted and equipped to understand ‘who I am’ and why, based on the psychodynamics of my life experiences. On a professional level, I have excelled in my career, however more importantly I am always curious about organisational systems, and their impact on individuals working in those systems. I am more considerate and open-minded leader. If you’re considering applying to the Tavistock and Portman, my advice would be to embrace the unique experience and rich learning.”
