Danger, confusion, conflict, and deficit: a framework for prioritising organisational interventions
Article Abstract:
Management consultants must be able to establish priorities if they are to deal effectively with organisational behaviour. In order to do this, they must be aware of what is most important in a particular situation, how to choose what to do next and which factors must be dealt with first. Research has indicated that the best approach to intervention design may be to consider and interpret the customer's subjective psychological reality of the problem.

It is of special importance to identify with and consider personal experience in diagnosing and intervening in the life of an organisation. A consultant who uses a psychoanalytical approach will consider negative experiences with a company, such as meetings being cancelled or delayed, in a positive way to determine how an organisation works.
