Douglas LaBier is a business psychologist, psychotherapist, and writer. He is the Founder and Director of the Center for Progressive Development, in Washington, D.C and conducts programs for senior executives and leadership teams, based on his findings and empirical data, to create positive management cultures. He also practices psychotherapy for men, women and couples. He is known for research demonstrating that success in business and careers can create emotional and values conflicts for men and women. That became the thesis for the book 'Modern Madness: The Hidden Link Between Work and Emotional Conflict' (ISBN 0-595-08900-3), which is based on a study of 220 men and women and explains why careers within large organizations affect the potential for emotional and values conflict among people who are not otherwise emotionally disturbed. It was cited by Daniel Goleman〔Goleman, Daniel. (The Strange Agony of Success ) ''The New York Times'', August 24, 1986.〕 in The New York Times as “In the vanguard...offering sobering insights into the costs of modern success.”() LaBier argued that personal and career-related conflicts are often caused, paradoxically, by successful adaptation to the roles, pressures, and culture within organizations and careers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.amazon.com/Modern-Madness-Between-Emotional-Conflict/dp/0595089003/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1404328017&sr=1-1 )〕 LaBier has also authored numerous articles on related issues for ''The Washington Post'',〔Labier, Douglas.

LaBier was raised in upstate New York. His father, Horace J. LaBier, founded Local 227 of the (International Chemical Workers Union ) in 1937 at a German-owned chemical factory seized by the U.S. government during World War I, and served as its president for 10 terms. "LaBier’s father was frequently accused of being a Communist by the company, and won a well-publicized case before the National Labor Relations Board when the company forbid him to distribute pamphlets to workers containing readings of Spinoza, Aristotle, and Freud.〔Albany (NY) Knickerbocker News, June 5, 1963〕" LaBier received his Ph.D. from the State University of New York at Buffalo and did post-doctoral training at the National Institute of Mental Health, where he served on staff until 1973. He then trained in psychoanalytic psychotherapy at the Washington School of Psychiatry, where he later served on the faculty. He currently is a supervisory faculty member of George Washington University’s professional psychology doctoral program. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Douglas LaBier」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
