How do we help the world of work become a place where we all thrive and not just survive?

Occupational psychologists explore questions such as:

• How do we motivate people so that they can perform to the best of their abilities?
• How do we support individuals who have caring responsibilities elsewhere?
• How can we improve creativity across people in different industries?
• How do we help organisations retain their best employees?

In this episode of the SOM Podcast, host Steve Randall talks to Dr Hayley Lewis, Registered Occupational Psychologist, Dr Almuth McDowall, Professor of Organisational Psychology at Birkbeck University of London, and Dr Kevin Teoh, Senior Lecturer and Programme Director of the MSc Organisational Psychology at Birkbeck about a career in occupational psychology.

The SOM podcast is sponsored by Orchid Live - specialist occupational health software used by a number of SOM members to run every aspect of their occupational health operations. They hold healthcare records for over 1 million UK workers and work with both in-house OH teams and OH providers. You can find out more at OrchidLive.com.
