Course Summary

The contemporary organisation is characterised by complexity and change. Our unique Postgraduate Diploma Management and Organisational Dynamics, offered jointly by Essex Business School and our Department of Psychosocial and Psychoanalytic Studies, aims to equip you with powerful tools to support your development as a future leader, manager, organisational consultant, researcher, or executive coach.

Drawing upon both critical management theory and the developing field of systems-psychodynamics, our innovative course will be of particular interest to anyone who wishes to understand the complex processes that impact on change in organisations.

Postgraduate Diplomas last for six to nine months (full-time) and include the modules and assessed work of a Masters, without a dissertation.

Your future

Our graduates go on to several different destinations, including further study and training in psychoanalysis, Jungian analysis, or psychoanalytic psychotherapy.

Many of our students are already professionals, clinical and non-clinical, so return to their existing fields, either in jobs or further training, and use study with us to deepen their understanding of their work.

Modules

What is the unconscious? And how does it influence the behaviour of groups? Explore how a psychoanalytic approach can illuminate the dynamics of groups and organisations. Understand the classic theories of Freud and Bion, then develop perspectives on how psychoanalytic ideas explain individual and group behaviour.
