Companies
Psychologists are employed in many different ways in companies. It is quite common to work in consumer and market research, brand consulting, personnel selection and consulting, management consulting, and advertising.
A large part of my professional life revolves around the selection and optimal deployment of people according to their abilities, potentials and motivations. Perceiving on these levels was already encouraged during my studies and has now become a central part of my professionalism through experience. At the same time, my psychological knowledge enables me to identify how to develop people personally and professionally and how to deal with possible limitations.

My work in organizational and human resource development, as well as my role as a leadership trainer, allows me to combine social and individual psychological concepts. I enjoy making people and organizations more successful.
Mag. Dieter Bernold (Managing Partner, ARGO, https://www.argo.at/)
As managing director of a management consultancy, my team and I support companies and organizations in the development and successful implementation of strategies. Under the motto "We combine science and practice", our focus is on the preparation and application of current scientific findings in practice and on our own scientific research. [...] My solid psychological education at the University of Vienna is the basis for this and provides me with the skills and knowledge that I use on a daily basis.

After working for an international IT company in the field of PE/Management Development, I became self-employed at the age of 45 and currently work as a work and organizational psychology consultant, coach and psychotherapist in private practice. I am especially grateful to be able to bring my many years of experience in the field of work and organizational psychology to coaching and psychotherapy.
