Working with People explores the place and challenges of
communication, interviewing and counselling skills within the
context of social work and human service practice. In so doing it
encourages the reader to reflect upon their own communication style
and to develop good communication skills in order to work
constructively with others about their needs and rights. Now in its
second edition the text is updated to include recent developments
in social work practice. New to the edition is the chapter on
mindfulness, which reflects direct work with clients as well as
recognition of a growing need to focus on self-care. Other topics
of relevance to current social work practice and covered in the
text include ethical decision-making as part of everyday practice,
exploration of confidentiality, particularly in relation to
situations when it may need to be breached, more emphasis on
culturally safe practice, links with the application of skills in
group work and family practice. Working with People successfully
Integrates practice theories with case scenarios so that readers
can see the development of skills and interventions, as well as the
diversity of approaches available for social workers and human
service workers to use in their everyday practice.
