For decades, social work policy has been geared around checklists, maximizing throughput of cases, and responding to scandals. In this ground-breaking work, Judy Foster makes the case that such biases promote neither efficiency nor client satisfaction. Instead, she urges a complete overhaul, based on five principles: policy coherence; organisational support; autonomy; professional development; and finding space to think. The ideas she puts forward can be taken up by all social workers and those in social care, from their second year of qualifying training, to policy makers and leaders in the field.

Judy Foster is an experienced social worker and manager. She is a visiting lecturer in social work at the Tavistock Clinic, teaching postgraduate students. She trained as a child care officer before becoming a generic social worker, and managing the first referral and assessment team for a large inner city social services department. Subsequently she was head of training and staff development for the department, providing development opportunities for senior managers, social workers and care staff - introducing innovative projects in management, adult care, mental health, and children and families.
She was a national project officer at the Central Council of Education and Training in Social Work developing training standards in mentoring skills and care for children and young people; and at Skills for Care developing national training standards in mental health. She founded the Social Perspectives Network in modern mental health – and was chair of St Michael’s Fellowship, which provides residential parenting assessments to family courts and supportive work with young parents in the inner city. Her doctorate in social work was awarded in 2009. She is married with two children and three grandchildren.
