The Person Centered Approach to work in organizations is generating for the information age a similar explosion in productivity as the assembly line provided for the industrial age. These resources are most quickly and effectively realized when people are facilitated by an expert PCA consultant whose own way of being is congruent, empathetic, and unconditionally regardful. In this climate, people take responsibility for their own actions, opinions, feelings and attitudes. The resulting freedom and energy empower them. People learn to convert blame to personal responsibility.
Conflicts are more easily resolved, decisions and actions become clear.
People recognize that cooperation and collaboration reap great individual and organizational rewards. The Person Centered Approach was originated over fifty years ago by Dr. Carl R. Rogers. A founder of the humanistic psychology movement and twelve-year president of the American Psychological Association, Rogers was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1987 for a lifetime of work seeking understanding among people. Ernest E. Meadows, founder and sole proprietor of Camelot, was the first to recognize the significance of this model for work and organizations. He took Rogers' work, directed primarily toward the individual, and shifted the focus to the individual in relationship to their organization, enabling both organizations and their employees to achieve their desired results.
