This clear and practical text prepares students to become human service administrators by applying roles, theories, knowledge, and skills to the supervisory process, from interviewing and hiring to termination. Highlights of the New Edition: Current issues and "real-life" difficulties confronting supervisors are examined, making students aware of the relevant challenges and daily skills needed in supervision, preparing them for supervisory roles. In-chapter exercises, case vignettes, and supervisory problems ask students to apply chapter content and theory to a variety of situations and make considered decisions. The text's model empowers supervisors and underscores the NASW Code of Ethics for social workers by supporting ethical actions to improve services for clients. Contingencies such as the societal context, the agency, supervisees, peers, superiors, advocacy, conflict, management, and external relations are addressed throughout, giving students a glimpse into the actual world of a supervisor.
