About This Book
An essential resource for all kinds of groups, these tried and tested strategies will stimulate and encourage full participation from all group members. Provides ideas for introducing group members to each other, breaking down barriers, energising people, helping people learn, moving the group on, building trust between group members, motivating people, assessing and evaluating the group, managing behaviour and personal responsibility, and ending sessions. The activities are set out in a clear, easy to follow format, with variations and guidance for adapting the activities. Will enable group leaders to promote group members' self development, meet the needs of their different learning styles, stimulate their creativity and develop their thinking skills. This toolkit is an invaluable resource for tutors, occupational therapists, nurses, care staff, probation staff, youth leaders or anyone - new or experienced - who works with groups.
