Which role involves providing information, advice or help to an organization in meeting its objectives or solving problems?

• A. Counseling Role
• B. Coordination Role
• C. Consultation Role
• D. Assessment Role

Answer: (C)

Providing expert information, guidance, or problem‑solving help to an organization to help it meet its objectives is the consultation role. This involves using counseling expertise to assist leaders or teams, analyze organizational issues, propose interventions, and support implementation to improve overall functioning. It fits when the goal is to enhance organizational effectiveness rather than deliver direct therapy to individuals or manage logistics.

Direct counseling to individuals or groups is about addressing personal or relational concerns, not organizational goals. Coordinating services and resources focuses on logistics, scheduling, and ensuring things happen smoothly. Assessment involves evaluating clients or programs to gather data and inform decisions. The consultation role stands apart by centering advisory support to the organization to achieve objectives and solve problems.
