Dr. Phillip E. Rosner
In 1972, Dr. Rosner completed his doctorate in a new field,
Organizational Psychology. He was the first such graduate in the
history of the university. Virtually every phase of the program had
to be created either by him or for him. .
In 1976, Dr. Rosner had just finished a four year stint as an
Applied Corporate Psychologist for a large international consulting firm.
Those years allowed him to work with the CEOs of several
Fortune 100 companies and get involved in complex organizational
interventions that gave him practical experience available to few.
Human Resource Development, Inc. was founded in 1976.
(The name refers to "the human resource" of a company -- it's
people.)
During the subsequent years, Dr. Rosner has trained
several Organizational Psychologists and worked for a wide variety
of companies in many industries. He continues to serve as Trusted
Advisor to several "old" and new clients.
As an Applied Corporate Psychologist, he works with company CEOs
and their senior management teams. He has acquired the reputation
as an “expert” in Team Development and Team Re-development.
The former is “installing high-performance teams” and the latter is
“fixing teams that are under-performing or in conflict”.
He lives in Marietta, GA with his wife, Peri. He has two grown
children, Alicia who lives and works in Charlotte, NC, and Seth, who
lives in Columbia, MO with his sons, Jacob and Mason, his daughter,
Elliott, and his wife, Chelsea Garneau-Rosner, PhD, who is an
Assistant Professor at the University of Missouri.
