This model provides recommendations for possible interventions by women consultants working with feminist organizations. The issues, although discussed in this context, are considered to have implications for any consultant to a group which operates from a strong ideological basis. Eight characteristics of feminist organizations that are relevant to consultation are enumerated and discussed: (1) the organizations commitment to ideology may make entry difficult; (2) goals tend to be vague and grandiose and resources small; (3) emphasis focuses on egalitarian leadership and opposition to hierarchical structure; (4) the organization is attentive to interpersonal processes and accepting of emotional expression; (5) a sense of support/community is a major factor in joining the organization; (6) commitment for principles, not money, is the cause for involvement; (7) deviation from principles may be heretical and reaction toward deviants may be highly charged; and (8) ambivalence about relating to outside institutions exists. For each characteristic, implications for consultants are considered. An appended chart summarizes each point in an outline form. (Author/NRB)
