The second section of the book, Practice into Policy, examines real-life drivers for behavioural change. The third section evaluates personal learning and learning together. Highlights the barriers to collaboration, how to overcome them, and the resulting dividends Enlivens health policy with a view to transformative adaptations in the workplace Draws on international examples of effective practice for local application This book is designed for those in the early stages of their careers as health and social care professionals. It is also aimed at managers and educators, to guide them in commissioning and providing programmes to promote collaboration.
