Psychoanalytic institutes and centers are in need of leadership to carry on the history and education of psychoanalysis while also addressing changes in the internal and external culture. Leadership is its own area of study and practice that most psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists have little to no experience with. This program is aimed at introducing participants to the fundamental need for developing leaders in our organizations and addressing some of the fundamentals of being a leader.
Brett Penfil is a professional consultant to organizations in addition to being a psychoanalytic psychotherapist and current Board Chair of SFCP. Harriet Wolfe has led a wide range of organizations including SFCP, The American Psychoanalytic Association, and currently the International Psychoanalytic Association. She writes and speaks on the subject of leadership.
