Training Social Welfare Administrators: The Activity Dilemma
Abstract
The impact of personal & organizational variables on the
development of behavioral patterns of social welfare administrators is
examined, using data from a Personal Assessment Inventory administered
to 68 social welfare administrators in preparation for a series of
training sessions at the Management Instit, U of Alabama. The results
suggest that the generalist nature of the administrative role is
modified by the professional orientation & span of control of the
individual in that role. The implications of these findings are
discussed, with special attention paid to the need for development of
appropriate training experiences. 6 Tables. Modified HA.
