Screenshot of module This resource supports managers working in adult social care to be more knowledgeable about, and confident in the application of different approaches to managing change.

This resource is wholly based on a publication from the University of Birmingham’s Health Services Management Centre, working with Middlesex University and NIHR School for Social Care Research.

There are two main sections to this resource:

  1. Four case studies which illustrate how key approaches to change could be deployed within the social care workspace
  2. A directory of 32 change approaches and management tools based on a review of current literature, with a commentary on how core social care change principles can be applied to them
