Hiring a shrink could make your company more successful

A friend linked me this article from NYtimes, about how shrinks could help make a company more successful. I thought it would be an interesting question to pose to WSO. The article states that;

“The biggest challenge for patients who are in a leadership role is to understand their own personality structure and its impact on their personal and professional relationships,” says psychoanalyst and board-certified psychiatrist Dr. Ashok Bedi tells Moneyish.

It also introduces Jonathan Pellegrin, the former chairman and CEO of publishing company Johnson Hill Press, to tell his story about the shrink he hired personally and for his business. The article mentions that these types of shrinks also known as industrial organizational psychologists;

work with policy planning, employee testing and selection, training and development and organizational development and analysis.

Pellegrin accredits the success of his former company to the psychologist they hired.

What do you feel about hiring a shrink for a struggling business that may have lost its way? Could this possibly work or is this just a one time deal, that somehow managed to work.
