Family Therapy Skills and Consulting with Small Groups or Teams

Family Therapy Skills and Consulting with Small Groups or Teams The analogy in organizations and family therapy is that male leaders may be viewed as the father (the authority figure) and female managers as the mother (the role of sexism should also be explored with this). Subordinates can be viewed as children ( brothers
and sisters) in the family, with issues of sibling rivalry and the development of a relationship with the parents while working out competition/cooperation issues with each other. Just as in ordinary families, weak or inconsistent parents create feelings of insecurity
and striving to become a parent or parentified children. The psychoanalytic
view of organizations relies heavily on the notion that people replay their struggles with their families of origin in organizational settings. People look in their organizational
families for what they did not get in their childhood families .
Just as in families, pathology or dysfunctional patterns of behavior exist in teams and organizations.
