Whether teams are short- or long-term, family planning for achieving safety, permanency, and well-being can be more effective with genuine teamwork. Helping teams be effective requires knowledge of team phases and activities, as well as strong facilitation skills and strategies for negotiating conflict.
This two-day training for social workers applies the principles learned in the preceding two modules to the teaming process. Participants will learn the steps and skills that produce successful team outcomes, accompanied by a one-day training, "Teaming for Supervisors: Key Points for Supporting & Coaching CSWs."
