Sinopsis

This book is for anyone who has ever volunteered to lead a seminar or run a workshop, or for anyone who has ever been cajoled into chairing a meeting or leading a group. Novice facilitators may recognize the anxiety that accompanies the first encounter with an assembled group. Even seasoned veterans often wonder how to excite and engage their audience more effectively and more often. The exercises in this book will deliver these results. Designed to be used in a variety of settings, these exercises will benefit all professional and personal organizations, from business meetings to adult education seminars to therapy groups. They may also be adapted for use with various age groups, ability levels, and diverse backgrounds. In order to meet the needs of busy facilitators, the exercises are written in simple, accessible language, and delineate clear objectives, materials and time required, as well as optimal group size. Even the implementation of just 34 exercises will lead to improved group performance and enjoyment. An entire section is also devoted to evaluation, and how to implement creative formats for evaluating groups. Social workers, rehabilitation counselors, criminologists, psychologists, nurses, educators, human resource and business managerial staff, community leaders.

Reseña del editor

This is a supplement for group work courses that enables instructors to teach skill-building through active participation in groups. It could also be used as part of any human services course to facilitate active learning. Students learning to conduct groups or group counseling or to facilitate social work practice with groups will appreciate these exercises and should keep this supplement as part of their social work library when they enter practice. The exercises can be used with many different types of groups, including students in classroom settings; various kinds of therapy, including hospital therapy; and workshops. The text identifies different group stages and presents exercises that are suitable for each stage. Clearly and accurately described, each exercise provides the actual language that can be used by group facilitators; variations of each exercise are provided, as well as "Tips," or practical suggestions for dealing with a broad range of group process issues. A chapter on evaluation (Ch. 9) provides creative formats for evaluating groups.
