The difference between evidence-based organizational psychology and general workplace advice is like the difference between medicine and wellness tips. While well-meaning advice can occasionally be helpful, there's no substitute for approaches backed by decades of research and practice.
At Ugh, Work, we draw from:
- Peer-reviewed psychological research that has been tested, replicated, and validated
- Applied psychology expertise that helps us understand both individual and group behavior at a fundamental level
- Data-driven methodologies that allow us to measure real impact and adjust interventions based on outcomes
- Licensed professional expertise governed by strict ethical guidelines and continuing education requirements
- Comprehensive psychological expertise validated through the Examination for Professional Practice in Psychology (EPPP), spanning everything from behavioral science to advanced research methods. Passing the EPPP is one component of obtaining licensure to practice psychology.
Scientific training in psychology means we understand not just what works, but why it works and under what conditions. This allows us to:
- Identify root causes rather than treating symptoms
- Adapt proven methodologies to your specific context
- Predict potential challenges before they arise
- Measure outcomes objectively
- Scale solutions across your organization systematically
Lasting organizational change requires deep understanding of human behavior and evidence-based approaches. Our PhD-level expertise means we don't just facilitate team activities or offer generic business advice - we create measurable, sustainable transformation based on scientific principles.
When you work with Ugh, Work, you're not just getting activities or advice - you're getting evidence-based solutions built on a foundation of rigorous scientific understanding and proven psychological expertise. We believe that better workplaces start with better science.
