THE USE OF PSYCHOLOGICAL COUNSELLING TECHNIQUES BY HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGERS

ABSTRACT

This research was designed to find out the extent to which Human Resources Managers feel they have been able to accomplish their counselling function successfully, judging from their perception and that of workers in the area of research. In order to effectively do this, five research questions and four hypotheses were proposed for this study and these were based on the common problems of workers. Human Resources Managers perception of workers problems, workers and managers perception of need for professional counsellors, reason for poor emphasis on Industrial counselling in Nigeria, and the role of psychological counselling in handling workers problems.
The project contains five chapters. The first chapter deals with the introduction. The second chapter discusses in detail theoretical concepts involved in the study while examining recent developments in industrial counselling. This chapter also looks at the effect of psychological counselling on the troubled worker and stress as well as
the danger of just glossing over these problems. It also examines the various counselling strategies used in handling human problems, leadership effectiveness, human motivation and development at work..
The third chapter focuses on the research design and methodology, while the fourth chapter deals with the analysis and interpretation of the data collected by appraising and teeting the hypotheses proposed. Finally, the fifth chapter gives the summary, recommendations and conclusion.
