Listen "S2, Ep.28: The Industry Track: Where Business and I/O Psychology Meet "
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Organizational Sherlocks, we start exploring the different tracks available to Industrial-Organizational (I/O) psychology professionals. Today Morgan Ashworth is interviewed by the Organizational Sherlocks I/O behind the scenes, Darien Chismar, to examine the industry track—a path that blends psychology, business strategy, and people operations. They discuss how I/O professionals in industry roles often start in HR, yet expand their impact to organizational development, leadership coaching, and change management. Morgan shares insights on adapting evidence-based practices, tackling real-world urgency, managing asymmetric information in leadership, and balancing business success with employee well-being. Listeners will gain practical advice on entering industry roles, learning beyond formal education, and staying current with trends such as AI and generational shifts in the workplace.
