Steps to Consultation w/ Diverse Consultee (Gibbs, 1980) • Appraisal: Consultee determines the trustworthiness of the consultant. • Investigation: Challenge the consultant to determine if they qualified to work with them. • Involvement: Consultee will open up if they trust you to develop a relationship. • Commitment: Consultee commits to consultant but not process. • Engagement: Commit to the process if they believe in interpersonal skills of consultant.

  12. Points to Consider: Client is Diverse • Must identify consultant’s knowledge of cultural sensitivity. • Must aid consultee in developing cultural sensitivity and knowledge about different cultural groups. • Must aid consultee in developing understanding of system in which client works and lives. • Work with teacher/consultee to improve development of curriculum and multicultural education. (Duncan, 1995)
