- Title
The Role of the Consultant.
- Authors
Gibb, Jack R.
- Abstract
This article explains that in this issue of the "Journal of Social Issues," a group of professional consultants attempt to define the consultant role and to clarify some of the technical, professional, and ethical issues arising out of this increased professionalization and this augmented demand. The writers hope to stimulate some needed research, move toward further differentiation of a body of theory related to the consultant process, encourage the development of more adequate professional training programs for consultants, and stimulate discussion and increased self-consciousness among consultants.
