There is a long history of using groups to improve the management of organizations and the effectiveness of their services. Despite this there is very little practical guidance material available which reflects the experiences and organizational forms commonly encountered in both the statutory and voluntary sectors of the personal social services. This manual is intended to provide practical training material for managers and training staff to assist their staff teams work more collaboratively; have a clearer sense of purpose and achieve effective service provision for their clients. It should be useful to social services trainters, managers and staff teams and for those on social services diploma courses. The manual includes material which relates to the current preoccupations of the Social Services Departments, but will not be tied to SSD boundaries - the other agencies from the voluntary sector and the allied staff in health, employment and housing should be able to usefully employ the material.
