Corinna Ehlers introduces strength-focused goal setting for social and educational work in her book. Strengths are to be cultivated and applied in a hands-on manner in everyday life. To achieve this, strengths are explored in detail, and alongside visions, strength-focused goals are developed with strategies for implementation. The methods presented in the book are suitable for self-reflection to gain clarity about one's own strengths and goals, as well as for working with clients. To meet the demands of practice in social and health services, as well as in education, and to keep one's own interests in mind, individuals who work with others need good self-management, especially in times of high workloads, large case numbers, and increasing administrative tasks.
