Applied
Psychology Consultants, Inc. (APC), a multi-state company that provides
Industrial /Organizational consulting services to a wide range of private
and public sector organizations was incorporated in 1982 by Wes Lynch from
Bozeman, Montana to offer I/O services that are cost effective, designed
to increase productivity, and improvement the work environment for employees.
In addition to the traditional I/O consulting services, APC has begun to
develop online services to clients that includes performance appraisal,
organizational surveys, and computer based training (CBT) that is tailored
to clients’ specific needs.
The
corporate home offices are located in Baltimore, MD. There are regional
sales offices in several locations throughout the country.
Each
regional office is staffed by a sales and marketing person and an administrative
assistant. There are software programmers,
sales, marketing and distribution, trainers, and 3 personnel in finance
and accounting.
APC,
Inc. has been in a growth phase since 1995 when business began to really
take off. Clients have found the
services to be very effective and have found that APC consultants do an
excellent job of meeting client needs Most of the consulting contracts
have been developed out of Baltimore because of proximity to clients.
I/O
consulting services: A group
of Industrial / Organizational consultants (IOCs) in the Baltimore location
form teams to complete I/O work related projects that involve solving problems
or capitalizing on potential opportunities that emerge. Some projects require
putting out fires such as developing a strategy for hiring a CFO on short
notice, while most will be longer -term problems that may require weeks
to several months to solve, such as developing a selection procedure for
programmers.
Because
the I/O consulting group has been so successful in the past in providing
internal consulting services to APC top management decided to hire a full
time senior I/O consultant to head up projects in the Baltimore location.
APC management hired Dr. Tom Mitchell, an I/O psychologist, to head up
the I/O consulting program. Tom Mitchell recognized early on that he was
unqualified and unable to do the work himself. Therefore he realized the
importance of staffing the department with competent I/O masters’ degree
students. He was able to attract a number of capable students from the
Applied Psychology program at the University of Baltimore where he worked
as an instructor before being fired from UB.
