Im vorliegenden Aufsatz werden zwei Thesen diskutiert: Die Verbindung von Soziologie und Beratung bedeutet - so die erste Annahme - für beide Seiten eine beträchtliche Herausforderung, da sich die sozialwissenschaftlichen Anforderungen der Analyse von Wandlungsprozessen bisher nur schwer mit den praktischen Erfordernissen der konkreten Umgestaltung von Organisationen vereinbaren lassen. Die Bewältigung dieser Herausforderung - so die zweite These - ist im wesentlichen eine professionspolitische Aufgabe, die koordinierte Professionalisierungsanstrengungen von Praxissoziolog/innen und Sozialforscher/innen verlangt. Der Autor geht zur Erläuterung dieser Thesen zunächst auf Grundprobleme im Verhältnis von Soziologie und Organisationsberatung ein und diskutiert die vorherrschenden sozialtechnologischen Beratungsansätze. Er unterbreitet ferner einige Vorschläge zur Professionalisierung soziologisch orientierter Beratung, wobei es ihm um systematische Klärungsversuche zu grundsätzlichen Problemen geht, die seiner Meinung nach in den bisherigen Debatten zu kurz gekommen sind.
