Workshop 58: Yes, Chef! Balancing Leadership and Coordination in the Family Court Kitchen
Parties in family court encounter numerous professionals whose roles are to help the family transition away from conflict. How these professionals work together can have an impact on families. This workshop will help practitioners: (1) recognize their role in the multiple systems in which they operate; (2) share information effectively and appropriately with other members of the system; (3) address issues within the “uber-system” before they derail the family’s work; and (4) identify when how the practitioner can assert leadership in the “uber-system” regardless of the practitioner’s role.
