Abstract

At the commencement of this decade, leaving behind the “striking seventies”, we christened it the “anxious eighties”, for there was a profound disquiet and uncertainty among most of the population, a fear that things were going to get worse, but they could have hardly expected the catastrophic events of the year 1981. The criteria of quality of life are its richness, grace, elegance; by the promise it contains; inspiration and purpose, hope, determination (to survive, to make certain that the evildoer is not permitted to succeed), love of one's country — pro patria, of other days.

Abstract

They waited until lunch was being served before they told him. Like that, they thought he would not make so much of a fuss. It left a mark that may well be permanent, for the run from King's Cross to Harrogate is one he does fairly often, and now he finds piercing memories coming back as the familiar landscape rushes past the carriage window.

Abstract

Discusses the counselling service in the communications organisation News International. Considers the role of counselling in the organisation, the use of counselling skills within the company, and the limitations of a manager′s counselling role. Concludes that counselling offers the opportunity to focus on the individual′s welfare, rather than the company′s, and this is to the ultimate benefit of the company.

Abstract

This paper proposes a new dimension to the career counselling function. It suggests an approach to solving the personnel problems currently caused by the combined effect of the economic recession, the influx of “baby boomer's” into the management sector, and the correction of past hiring errors, and changes in life style.

Abstract

Background: The introduction of antiviral agents, most particularly ‘highly active antiretroviral therapy’ (HAART), has changed the very nature of the care for persons with HIV and/or AIDS, from preparing patients to die to assisting patients with living with a chronic illness. Despite this dramatic turnaround in prognosis, the limited literature available indicates that these individuals often do not have a high degree of hope for the future. Accordingly, this study seeks to explain how hope might be inspired and maintained in people living long‐term with HIV/AIDS (the so‐called ‘Lazarus Syndrome’). Design: The study used a modified Glaserian grounded theory method and was conducted in the United States of America. A total of 10 participants were selected by means of theoretical sampling. Methods: The study adhered to the principal features of Glaserian Grounded Theory, namely: (a) theory generation, not theory verification; (b) theoretical sampling; (c) the constant comparative method of data analysis; and (d) theoretical sensitivity (searching for/discovering the core variable, one which identifies the key psychosocial process and contains temporal dimensions or stages). Further, the authors ensured that the study was concerned with generating conceptual theory, not conceptual description. Findings/conclusion: The findings indicate that the key psychosocial problem (i.e. the maintenance of hope) is addressed through the core variable, ‘Turning from death to life: finding new meaning’. This parsimonious theory describes and explains a four‐stage process of hope maintenance consisting of the subcore variables: ‘Losing the Ontological Self’, ‘Turning from Death to Life’, ‘Finding Acceptance and Reconciliation’, and ‘Finding New Meaning’.

Abstract

Current market forces, technological change, acquisition and merger mania, and the approach of 1992 and the European free market, are all imposing accelerating enforced career changes at a rate few top managers have experienced. There is thus a growing need for self‐assessment programmes to develop employees′ potential to match their organisations′ changing needs. In this context the value of “transition counselling” is examined.
