Abstract

ABREU, Cynara Carvalho de  and  MELO, Symone Fernandes de. Between the technique and the téchne: working possibilities of the psychologist in organizations. Rev. abordagem gestalt. [online]. 2019, vol.25, n.1, pp. 83-90. ISSN 1809-6867.  http://dx.doi.org/10.18065/RAG.2019v25.8.

The aim of this article is to instigate reflection, based on the thought of Martin Heidegger concerning the issue of technique, more specifically about the space that psychologists have commonly occupied in the work organizations, which, in turn, are inserted in a postmodern world. Psychologists, among other professionals, have sought knowledge and specific technical preparation, especially after graduation, to take up positions in areas of personnel management in organizations. However, it has not been uncommon to hear psychologists working in organizational contexts reporting that they do not longer feel themselves like psychologists, who do not even remember that they exercise their profession, because the daily activities require knowledge and skills that are very little associated with the training area they have chosen. From the reflection proposed here, we seek to follow a path in which we can glimpse the possibilities of psychologists to rethink their professional practice in such a way as to privilege the téchne without giving up the technique, and thus establish a serenely free relationship with the latter.

Keywords : Psychology at Work; Téchne; Heideggerian phenomenology.
