Edited by Margarita Frederico, Maureen Long, Nadine Cameron

Hardback

Description

This edited collection situates the wellbeing and safety of vulnerable children as the focus of leadership.

It provides a guide to theories and practice of leadership for those who want to make a difference to the lives of these children and their families.

Drawing on the experience of a highly successful postgraduate program in Child and Family Practice Leadership, the book explores the changing context of Child and Family Practice and the role of leadership, in addition to the knowledge and skills required for effective practice.

Contributors draw upon their own practice experiences and insights into the most effective ways to support the work of practitioners to achieve the best outcomes for children and families.

The content comprises a mixture of theoretical consideration, discussion of original research and interviews with child and family practitioners. Bringing together contributions from leading specialists and professionals in the field, this book will be essential reading for individual practitioners, organisations and policymakers looking to assist the development of leadership within the child and family practice sector.

It will also be of interest to those working in child protection and related workforces.
