The Psychodynamics of Organization Development Consultants
通过对组织发展顾问的初步访谈，发现他们倾向于具有强烈的理想化能力，并自认为害羞且人际困难。从客体关系视角分析后提出假设，并用客体关系技术收集数据，报告了实地研究结果并与临床群体比较。
Preliminary interviewing of organization development consultants suggested that, first, they tended to have a strongly developed ability to idealize, and second, they tended to see themselves as being shy individuals with considerable interpersonal difficulties. Such findings, along with an analysis of organization development values taken from -the literature, were interpreted from an object relations viewpoint. From this a hypothesis regarding the psychodynamics of organization development consultants was developed. Operational measures were devised and data collected using the Object Relations Technique (Phillipson, 1973). Some indicative findings are reported from fieldwork and comparisons made with clinical groups. Discussion of the difficulties of interpretation and implications for practice of this explanatory work conclude the paper.
