Looking at how to run staff training groups and at what to do with stuck teams, this ''how to do it'' guide is aimed at people in the health and social services who want their training to be imaginative, energetic and effective. The latest theories in staff training are examined, with a focus on how to use sociodrama as a training tool. Using jargon-free language, the author explains how, unlike psychodrama, sociodrama utilizes hypothetical events, derived from the concerns and experiences of the group, as a basis for developing a deeper understanding of social situations.
Part 1 Running staff training groups: background; the trainers; planning; beginnings; middles; role play; endings. Part 2 Team building and the art of team doctoring: stages of team development; team doctoring. Part 3 Using sociodrama: the stages of a sociodrama; sociodramas based on real events; case examples.
This compact book offers a clear sketch of the territory and techniques of sociodrama, and will be useful for the relatively new group facilitator who has already acquired some training in the use of sociodramatic techniques. It will also be of use to educationalists wishing to know more about the building blocks in this dynamic and fruitful method of enabling adult learning through the experience of involvement. I would like to recomment tihs book as a coherent and easy to read introduction to the field of sociodrama as applied to team building and team facilitation.
