Is there any jobs that blend both psychology and business?

Question

I love marketing and promotions, but I also love psychology. I am a psychology major, but I decided to minor in marketing. I started college with the hopes of becoming an industrial organizational psychologist, but while taking my minor courses I discovered that I love the business aspect even more than the psychology aspect. I was trying to find a career that would infuse the two. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

Sure. I know people who are working as a Employee Development Manager. It is a blend of counseling, management and leadership training.

Companies also hire psych majors to help them create effective marketing as well as helping design better products. Increasingly it is emotion that sells a product not just functionality. There are several articles published in the Time magazine recently regarding such topic.

Best wishes.

Answer 2

Suck great insight yet so undirected. Most Jobs there is a blend of both business and psych. yet more people so not even realizes this. there are so many doors open to you if you can master this and not have people know that you know what is going on.
Sale , marketing, mangers, the list is really endless.

Business does not move till people move and what moves people psychology.

Best of luck as you tale your first steeps to Jedi management
