Working with Others
by Bryce Taylor

What others are saying about this book

Bryce Taylor takes the reader through a process of breaking down the tasks and methods of helping - returning to underlying principles that are often taken for granted or worse, just forgotten. He then builds the full picture once more through describing and assessing the skills practitioners can apply. In so doing he explores the many pitfalls that can cause practioners to stumble, but offers tools and techniques to help avoid them. He has managed to bring together a wide range of aspects of helping into one book and, as ever, combines rigorous intellectual analysis with real life examples making it easy for the reader to understand and learn.

Paul Devlin - Age Concern

As a practitioner in human relations throughout my long career, my life’s work with others and indeed with myself, would have been deeply enriched by the author’s Seven Stage Model had I come to it earlier. The model fosters a progressive relationship; its language both clear and insightful is inspirational; adaptable to any discipline and culture. At its heart lies an oasis best fitted to enable effective change in the important field of human relations.

The Seven Stage Model of Human Relations offers the reader a simple and easy framework that can be used to create an effective relationship. The beauty of the model is that it can be used within any therapeutic model; in the briefest of helping relationships as well as with clients that may want to make large changes in their life.
