A continuación, te explicamos cómo puedes asegurarte de que los miembros de tu equipo se sientan valorados y apoyados como trabajadores sociales.

Feeling unheard? Social work burnout is real! Actively listen to show you care. Ask open-ended questions ("What's challenging you today?") & truly hear their concerns. Summarize key points & offer solutions together. Show empathy, celebrate wins, & offer workload adjustments. Strong teams start with active listening!

Active listening is more than just hearing words; it's about grasping the message behind them. By practicing active listening, you show your team members that their thoughts and feelings matter. When they speak, give them your full attention, acknowledge their concerns, and respond thoughtfully. This demonstrates respect and can foster a sense of belonging, which is essential in a field as collaborative as social work.

Providing regular feedback is a vital component of team management. Constructive feedback helps team members understand their strengths and areas for improvement. Remember to balance critiques with recognition of their accomplishments. This not only aids professional development but also makes team members feel valued for their contributions, which can boost morale and job satisfaction.

Es importante dar retroalimentación… el problema es cuando vez que no quieren ir más allá… que no quieren tener más allá y todo se lo dejan a la empresa es decir que la empresa me suba el sueldo por que llegue a “x” tiempo de trabajo… debemos seguir puliendo nuestro trabajo!

Encouraging professional development is key to showing your team that you're invested in their growth. Offer opportunities for further education, training, or attendance at relevant conferences. This not only enhances their skills but also conveys that you value their aspirations and are committed to their career progression within the social work field.

Feeling burnt out? Team support fuels growth! Social workers face heavy workloads. To keep your team motivated for development: 1. Celebrate wins - acknowledge achievements big & small. 2. Foster peer learning - encourage knowledge sharing & team problem-solving. 3. Prioritize self-care - offer flexible schedules & wellness resources. A supported team thrives!

Social work stress got your team down? Foster connection! Feeling valued boosts morale & collaboration. Celebrate successes (big & small) publicly. Regularly check in & offer support. Encourage teamwork by assigning shared projects & facilitating open communication. A happy, supported team works wonders!

My team enjoys flexible schedules and can work fully from home on certain days. While IOP groups are structured, time outside face-to-face contact is more flexible. I encourage short walking breaks and coffee time. I also understand how this can boost productivity especially for neuro divergent staff. Staff get an hour to document, plan, and provide case management for every face-to-face hour with clients. Though not always easy, exceptional treatment requires time, a priority I take seriously. I've never denied a time-off request, even if it means covering their tasks myself. Your time off is your time off!
