Direct Leadership

Catch the Leadership Opportunities and Engage People

By: Karin Zastrow

Direct Leadership is for the leader who wants to excel in the day-to-day leadership of his/her team. The book spells out exactly what you need to deliver when you're entrusted with leading people. Further, it sensitises you to the easy-to-implement 3-step method of catching the leadership opportunities, relating them to the relevant area of responsibility and taking action with clarity so that your intentions are understood. If you follow the Direct Leadership approach in your day-to-day leadership, you'll soon be recognised as a committed, hands-on leader who gives your staff the guidance they need to be engaged and efficient. Direct Leadership is the method that will translate all the social skills and leadership competences that you already possess into actions that make immediate sense for your employees. Moreover, the key notion of leadership deliverables: - enables a pragmatic peer discussion about how to tackle employee challenges - facilitates an unbiased succession-planning - is well-suited for specific challenges, such as distance- and/or agile leadership The chapters are logically organised.

Interprofessional Collaboration in Social Work Practice

By: Karin Crawford

How can social workers be more effective in collaborative work? What are the skills, knowledge and values required for collaborative practice? How does collaborative social work practice impact on the experience of service-users and carers? These questions are faced by social workers every day and interprofessional collaborative practice is high on the policy agenda for trainees and practitioners. Written primarily for social work students and practitioners, although having relevance across the wider range of stakeholders, this book explores the issues, benefits and challenges that interprofessional collaborative practice can raise. Chapter-by-chapter the book will encourage the reader to critically examine the political, legal, social and economic context of interprofessional practice. It also explores how social workers can work effectively and collaboratively with other professions while retaining their own values and identity. Key features include: - activities to illustrate the ways in which collaborative working can impact upon the experiences of service users, carers and practitioners; - discussions looking at the different people and organisations with whom social workers might work in practice; - examples of research and knowledge for practice; - a glossary to act as a useful quick reference point for the reader; - a companion website. Engaging and well-written, each chapter also includes case studies, reflective questions and links to further reading and sources of information. Interprofessional Collaboration in Social Work Practice will be essential reading for social work qualifying students and for practitioners.

Cellular Signal Processing

An Introduction to the Molecular Mechanisms of Signal Transduction

By: Friedrich Marks,Ursula KlingmÙller,Karin Müller-Decker

Cellular Signal Processing is intended for use in signal transduction courses for undergraduate and graduate students. It offers a unifying view of cell signaling that is based on the concept of protein interactions acting as sophisticated data processing networks that govern intracellular and extracellular communication. The content is guided by three major principles that are central to signal transduction: the protein network, its energy supply, and its evolution. It includes coverage of all important aspects of cell signaling, ranging from prokaryotic signal transduction to neuronal signaling. It also highlights the clinical aspects of cell signaling in health and disease.
