The first part of the book identifies four overlapping but distinct types of group-authoritative, participative, co-operative and peer. Part two focuses on the skills of managing each group type and offers guidelines for making clear agreements and alliances, developing flexible leadership, making sense of group and individual development needs, tackling hot issues which arise in group supervision, and encouraging and working with the diversity encompassed by each group.
