Product description
The Manager Induction Standards are the latest product in the highly regarded Skills for Care leadership and management suite, now contributing to 'transforming social care' as called for in the 2007 Putting People First statement.
The Options for Excellence review of the social care workforce and the white paper Our Health, Our Care, Our Say both stress the need for all social care agencies to ensure that their leaders and managers are competent and confident and thereby able to ensure the provision of quality services and positive outcomes for those who use their services.
High quality induction of new managers is therefore essential if they are to be able to 'hit the ground running'. The standards set out clearly for the first time what a new manager needs to know, understand and be able to do.
In this edition, as well as the induction standards themselves, there is guidance for new and aspiring managers on how to plan and implement an appropriate induction programme. There is also advice on how to gather evidence to be assessed against the standards. Finally there is a tool to plan and record an individual's progress. A companion volume has complementary information for the managers and mentors of new managers.
