Motivational Interviewing
for rehabilitation workers, case managers
and employment advisers

In these cost-cutting times, there is a need for organisations to be as efficient and effective as they can be. When working with people who are having problems in returning to employment, better outcomes can be achieved by using certain validated techniques, such as Motivational Interviewing, to help clients take ownership and move on towards their goals. This has a beneficial effect both for the individuals, for the professionals working with them and for the employing organisations.
