Management and Organisations in Social Work by Trish Hafford-Letchfield
This fully revised and updated second edition looks at the study of social work management and organisations, focusing on relationships with crucial partners such as central government agencies, local partners and other social care organisations. Through an examination of current research and practice, the author explores the relationships between ideology, professional and personal values and decision making in organisational culture. Included in the text are case studies, activities and further reading lists to aid learning.
"Excellent contribution to an area of social work that is sadly very poorly researched - Helps make the complex clear and straightforward" (Senior Lecturer, University of Wolverhampton)
