Summary of contents
Save time with the easy-to-use reference tool
The book is divided into nine parts, with each section detailing a particular approach. A simple reference tool allows you to identify a specific problem that you are dealing with and select the appropriate technique to address the situation.
Train other members of staff to use the techniques – PowerPoint presentation included
We recognise that a lot of the ideas and techniques can and should be used for in-service training, so to make this process easier we’ve added a PowerPoint presentation on an accompanying CD-ROM. Using this, you can take other staff members through the techniques step-by-step so that they can employ them whenever necessary.
Unlike the other units in this book, it is not worksheet based. It aims to guide the user through a process. Use it to:
- avoid conflict
- make clear the various options available in a given situation
- explain the possible consequences of various courses of action
- show that you understand that ultimately people make their own choices.
