Observing, analyzing and interpreting human behavior in a professional environment is the domain of industrial organizational psychologists, commonly referred to as IO psychologists.
These professionals focus on individual and group performance, satisfaction, safety, health and well- being through a variety of quantitative and qualitative methods.
By studying workers attitudes and behaviors, IO psychologists are able to recommend or create improved hiring practices, training programs, feedback systems and management techniques to boost company performance. Their knowledge and skills are applicable to almost any organization, including corporations, factories, nonprofits, government agencies and the military.
On this page, we are going to take a more in-depth look at the typical day of an IO psychologist and what it takes to excel in the field.
