Summary: | Evidence has emerged which suggests that as a supervisor, the importance of knowing
oneself, and knowing those that he or she is supervising, is vital to the success of the group. We argue
that when conflicting values, attitudes, and beliefs are present amongst the members of the group
over an issue (inclusion), or over the behaviours of a member (non-inclusive), the entire group can
break down. Therefore, to successfully implement a program, such as inclusion, knowing the attitudes
of the staff is vital as a program such as this cannot be successful without positive support. |
