Social Work Interventions And Management

Day-to-day tasks include goal setting, resource acquisition, problem solving, negotiation, team and coalition building, information management, assessment, and quality control. Social workers are often promoted into administration from direct practice. Increasingly, however, agencies look for an administration background and technical management abilities. The capacity to work with and motivate others is the key to success as a social work administrator, as are creative thinking and leadership. This practical reference book provides a clear and comprehensive guide to how to be an excellent project manager, and is a must-read for all social work and social care managers and post-qualifying social work and social care students.
