Abstract
The purpose of this case study and accompanying research is to investigate the viability
of superimposing an individual counseling process for change onto an organization.
Following research into both human nature and organizational nature, a parallel is made
that allows for a common framework for change. An organizational counseling
framework was designed involving four phases: visioning, investigating, interpreting, and
reorienting. The results of this study show that the process is easily adapted to different
contexts, makes use of current theory in practice, provides a clear model to view
individuals and organizations and addresses the needs of the individual within the
organizational context. The project concludes with a case study that illustrates this
process at work in a Southern Alberta high school.
