Laios complex
Under a Laios complex (from Laios , father of Oedipus) one understands in psychology a union of several emotionally stressed ideas ( CG Jung ), which arose from a confrontation of the ego and the environment in the distant past and which are pushed out of consciousness because of their negative emotional quality were.
In the Laios complex, feelings and attitudes towards the father or stepfather of the there and then are transferred to people in the here and now. As a result, there are major problems in relationships between the person concerned and completely uninvolved people. Using the example of an otherwise impeccable executive in a company, this can mean that massive conflicts arise in the field of work, which lead to the departure of talented younger employees. So in this case the whole company suffers.
