In class we discussed 4 factors that affect collaboration; describe two of those factors. a. The first factor that can affect collaboration is time. Teachers are very busy throughout the day and may find it hard to make time to collaborate with their peers. Some schools have worked to build in this collaboration time during the day or during the weeks of school. However, some teachers must find this time on their own. It can be difficult for a teacher to stay after school or meet on the weekends but this may have to be done in order to make that time for collaboration. b. The second factor that can affect collaboration is trust. Trust is very important and sometimes the hardest thing to have when collaborating. It is vital that everyone in the collaboration group trust each other. If they don’t then they may feel like they can’t share something because they are worried about breaking confidentiality. If someone feels like they can’t trust another, they are going to be less likely to be open and honest during the collaboration period. This can greatly affect the outcome of the collaboration
By working together there is information sharing, improve safety and quality also collaboration gives knowledge to other professionals. (Littlechild and Smith, 2013).what I have learned through working in partnership with other professionals was creating a poster related to what each professional does. Some of the professionals I did not know how exactly they work together in partnership. Example: I was not aware of how a radiology would work with a social work and the outcome of that was that Radiology develop and maintain collaborative relationship with medical colleagues and participates in regular meetings with other professionals activities to meet the needs of a service users therefore they collaborate with Social Workers. By doing a poster and delivering information I learned a lot from the other team members, shared experiences knowledge and skills with other group members. Group work made me realise how it is very important to work in multi-displinary team, the benefit of it and what others can benefit from. During the poster each of the student was from different professional however we all had the question but each had to look at it in each profession perspectives. This gave an opportunity to everyone to go and search for each professional and communicate with the rest of the group the outcome of the presentation. By doing that, we exchanged ideas learned from each other’s skills and used it into practice. I have learned about sharing information with others, learned about communication and
A Client is someone who comes into a human service system with complicated things going on in their lives this can include psychological, cultural, financial, social, spiritual, and educational problems.
There are several signs that a client is more stressful to work with than they are worth to represent. You should not represent these clients, because they bring down the morale of our entire office. Black, analyzes some examples such as cases with a client
Consultant is defining a professional person who provides an expert advice in a particular area. A consultant is requested to help determine what treatment/services the client requires. A consultants also used their expertise to ensure that clients who require a particular type of knowledge or service (example:-a cardiologist for a client who had a myocardial infarction, a psychiatrist for a client whose risk for suicide needs to be assessed). Coordination of the consultant’s recommendations with other h...
Collaboration is defined as working together, and the concept of collaboration is very diverse and encompasses various aspects of team work with a goal in mind. The goal being to optimize the quality of life and the wellbeing of our community that we are caring for. Through collaboration of various sorts we can provide effective holistic care that will bring better outcomes to our patients and their families.
Collaboration begins with networking, coordination, and cooperation and then requires team members to share decisions, responsibility, and trust. It requires that team members invest time and energy to come up with options and design strategies for carrying out these plans. Because collaboration requires lots of time and energy, it is impossible to make all decisions collaboratively. In some instances, the desired result can be achieved through networking, coordination, or cooperation. Working together, or collaboratively, invites participation of multiple service providers and the use of multiple resources. See the Student Stories below for examples of collaboration in action.
The counseling session began with the introductions where I introduced myself as the counselor and later introduced my client. This stage is important in any counseling session since it is the time of exploration and focusing according to Gerard Egan as quoted by Wright (1998) in his essay on couselling skills. It is in this session that I was able to establish rapport and trust with my client in order to come up with a working and fruitful relationship with him. During this stage I made use of skills like questioning, where I would pose a question directly to my client, sometimes I would choose to just listen to what the client wanted to speak out while in some instances I would be forced to paraphrase the question if I felt the client did not understand the question I had asked previously. There were also other times when I would reflect through silence. During such a period, I got time to study the client and the information he had given. This being a difficult area, since some clients may not be able to volunteer information to you as the counselor, I decided to assure the client of confidentiality of any information he was willing to share with me with a few exceptions which I also told him about. Being open to him about the only times the information may not be confidential was part of my building rapport and establishing trust with him. I therefore, decided to ask the client what information he wanted to share with me and lucky enough he was ready to speak to me about different issues that he was going through.
These chapters taught me how important it is to reflect back what the client has told you in order to make sure you are understanding everything properly. Using the skills taught in chapter six, I can ensure that I am giving the client the best use of their time, because instead of asking useless questions or just waiting for them to continue talking, I am able to direct the focus of the session to the main problems, with the help of the client.
Teams have been around for many years. It is vital for members who are a part of any team to work together so that their labor is not in vain. A major advantage for working cohesively as teams is greater output and interpersonal skills. The drawback of not working in uniformity can lead to project delays and time constraints. Organizations create teams with the purpose of fulfilling certain obligations and acquiring business success. Roming (1996) states that togetherness and dependability means that members within the team assist each other and the team. Which in turn, yields a better-quality product.
Trust is necessary for successful collaboration but we are suspicious of each other – For example sometimes partners are selected by the policy which may lead to lack of trust in each group.
TEAMWORK The teamwork is usually defined as the process of working together in a group to achieve a common goal. These days, working in groups is inevitable. Whether it is a school assignment or working in a clinical setting, we have to work in groups to accomplish a task. We cannot expect to work in isolation all the time. As far as our team is concerned, they worked in an organised manner to accomplish the task within the deadline.
Teamwork and collaboration are the ability to play well with others. Whether a person is the leader or a follower, everyone needs to get along and work together to achieve a common goal. Everyone should be able to share their ideas and contribute their part in completing the end product. Everybody in class has a job to do and teamwork means helping others when they need it so if someone falls, you bring them back up.
...I believe through the use of critical thinking, communication with students and parents and showing the creative side of learning the collaboration within colleague would be enhanced. I know from my prior experience within the classroom as a substitute that without some collaboration the students are at a disadvantage. One memory stands out the most when collaboration is mention is when I was subbing for a ECE Teacher in a regular learning classroom, while the teacher was giving the rest of the students their assignments I was working one on one with a ECE student that needed the extra help in order to fulfill their task. The teacher and I collaborated on the questions that the student had left to complete before moving on to their homework. Through the use of collaboration the student was able to complete their task and be on the same task as the rest of the class.
In today’s workplace teamwork is an essential part of success. We have more and more business that are incorporating teamwork in some type of way. They are effectively implementing ways on how to create effective teams, teamwork and team building. They are also creating a work culture that values collaboration. Teamwork, is about people working together and working towards reaching their common goal.
