Experience, background and philosophy

Professor Wendy Harding is a founding member of NIODA – National Institute of Organisation Dynamics Australia and is the current Dean and PhD Co-lead at NIODA. Wendy has held roles in creating, leading and teaching in Australian postgraduate programs in systems psychodynamics for over 30 years. Her passions in this work are the interplay of object relations and intersubjective theory and application in organisations and broader systems, and in developing nuanced ways of opening space for deep reflection of experience in the classroom or organisation.

Alongside her role as an education leader, Wendy has undertaken many action research and consultancy projects in a broad span of organisational settings from hospitals, prisons and large government departments to a variety of smaller organisations. These projects have focussed on individual, team and whole of organisation development and structural and cultural change using a range of intervention methods.
