Description
Group work can be a powerful tool for success in various settings, from therapy and education to businesses and commercial organisations. However, it can also become a source of failure and hostility if not managed effectively. This clear and engaging book by Margaret Henning focuses on the practicalities of creating successful groups through systemic and narrative techniques. The author provides a model of group work that optimises conditions for success, with a focus on the role of group facilitators. Grounded in psychological theory, Positive Dynamics offers practical principles and techniques for achieving a 'best possible' group culture. The book will appeal to professionals in counselling and psychotherapy, social work, education, and management settings who want to create optimal conditions for groups to achieve their goals.
