This is an area where it may be OK to get a masters degree. Some corporate hiring managers prefer masters level practitioners for both in-house and consulting positions. The idea here is that those with doctorates are too intellectual and perhaps out of touch with corporate reality. My sense is that this attitude is fading, especially with the introduction of professional doctorates in organizational psychology. Nevertheless a masters in organizational psychology begs an important question: why didn’t you pursue a MBA with a specialty in organizational management or development? The MBA is a much more salable degree with many more job opportunities. In my opinion it makes for better career opportunities and higher income potential.
