Recognized by business managers as a useful and practical tool to
assist them in responding to a set of complex business challenges,
the need for outplacement counseling-- the process of assisting
employees who have lost their jobs to develop effective career
plans and to find new employment --has grown dramatically during
the past two decades. Given this rapid expansion of the field,
assembling, organizing, and clarifying the body of knowledge and
information available about outplacement has become critically
important. The first comprehensive effort in the field, this book
presents authoritative, up-to-date information on an exhaustive
range of outplacement topics. A psychologist and experienced
outplacement practitioner, the author has recently been chosen as
one of the charter fellows of the Outplacement Institute, the sole
certifying organization for outplacement practitioners.
Of value to all those interested in the field including current
and future practitioners as well as human resources professionals,
this volume contains essential information for candidates receiving
outplacement services, counseling students, and researchers
involved in the study of counseling in business and industry. With
such a broad audience in mind, it contains a wide range of
information--counseling theory and practical suggestions geared
expressly to the needs of practitioners, descriptive material on
all topics, and brief case histories of actual outplacement
candidates. Written in non-technical language, the volume brings to
life the flavor of outplacement practice.
This unique volume covers topics not addressed elsewhere in the
current outplacement literature including:
*the psychological barriers to a successful job search,
*the behavioral and counseling implications of the outplacement
setting,
*the theoretical basis of outplacement counseling,
*the relation between outplacement and psychotherapy,
*the professional development opportunities for outplacement
practitioners,
*the supervision of outplacement practitioners,
*the cross-cultural issues to be considered in outplacement,
*the relation of outplacement to other career development
professionals, and
*the marketing of outplacement services.
Also of importance, the appendices offer data not previously
disseminated to the general public including:
*competencies standards for OPC practitioners as established by
the International Association of Outplacement Professionals (IAOP),
*standards of ethical practice for outplacement professionals as
established by the IAOP, and
*listings of information resources for OPC practitioners and
candidates featuring a section on computer-based sources for
conducting career-related research.
