Quotes:

Marshall and Nielsen offer a unique, creative combination of organizational leadership and MI. The coverage of MI seems very clear for someone with no prior exposure, with rich and detailed applications to organizations, particularly at the supervision and work group levels. The case examples are extremely useful and relevant to health and human service settings. There are examples of dialogue to use in supervision, as well as probing reflective exercises and worksheets to help the reader apply the material. Tom Packard, DSW, School of Social Work (Emeritus), San Diego State University

Why We Chose This Book

Motivational Interviewing is being accepted in counseling and its concepts can be more effective in facilitating change than mandating it to employees and colleagues. For practitioners who use these concepts with patients, it may be a familiar transition in thinking.
