Explaining the model of commitment- oriented career counseling with the focus on the third order change based on the lived experience of employees of dynamic economic organizations

The purpose of this study is to explain the commitment-oriented career counseling model with a focus on the third order change based on the lived experience of employees of dynamic economic organizations. The present study was methodologically qualitative and based on the Grounded Theory. Sampling was performed on the basis of theoretical sampling in a purposeful and accessible manner with regard to the principle of theoretical saturation. The research community has formed the staff of Behyar Sanˈat complex in Isfahan province. Using a semi-structured interview, data from a total of 25 employees of Behyar Sanˈat Complex in Isfahan Province Was collected and after the realization of theoretical saturation, the grounded theory was used to analyze the data. Data analysis in the coding process resulted in the emergence of 4 selective codes (including ontological dynamics, balancing dynamics, extensor dynamics, and amplifying dynamics) with 11 axial codes and 38 open codes associated with each. Then, based on the extracted data, the commitment-based career counseling model was designed and presented, that is including 9 processes. These 9 processes are communicating with the unit of change, measurement and evaluation, demonstrating failed processes, facing resistance, negotiating the deconstruction of different ontologies and comparing their effects, conscious choice, behavioral testing of selection, review and re-evaluation, and correction and consolidation. Career counseling model developed in addition to creating new insights into the commitment component and change-making processes, it can be used to enhance commitment in relevant organizations.
