    About this ebook

    In this e-book leading social work author, Neil Thompson, offers guidance on how to be an effective social worker. Based on his extensive experience as a practitioner, manager, educator, writer and consultant, this helpful guide offers invaluable insights into what it takes to succeed in social work.

    Social work is a highly demanding profession, but one that also offers the potential for significant rewards – not least making a positive difference to the lives of some of the most vulnerable and disadvantaged members of our communities.

    Neil’s work is highly respected for its ability to blend theory and practice, and this e-book is no exception. It complements well his A Career in Social Work e-book which gives an overview of his own career to date and an outline of what others can expect from a career in social work.
