Ashford HHS201 Week 5 Discussion  

Dq1

Implementing Organizing Change. Assess the methods of organizing and changing systems. As human service professionals, what strategies do we use to galvanize positive change? Are changes generally generated from the top down, or from the bottom up? Please provide an example of each to support your answer. Also, discuss the dilemmas of the change agent – what obstacles do they face?

Dq2

Legal Considerations/Burnout. What are the primary legal considerations that every

human service worker must be aware of? How do these legalities help to protect us and our clients?

Although many of you may not have experienced job stress or burnout within a human service agency, you may have experienced something similar in another aspect of your life. Discuss your experiences and how you have coped with stress in the past. Analyze some of the recommendations for avoiding burnout included in your readings and discuss some that you might want to implement for yourself in the future.
