Where Do Social Workers Do Social Work? 342
Monocultural versus Multicultural Organizational Perspectives in Social
Work 345
Lesson 1: A failure to develop a balanced perspective between person focus
and systems focus can result in false attribution of the problem 348
Lesson 2: A failure to develop a balanced perspective between person focus
and system focus can result in an ineffective and inaccurate treatment plan
that is potentially harmful to the client 349
Lesson 3: When the "client" is an organization or a larger system and not
an individual, a major paradigm shift is needed to attain a true
understanding of the problem and identify the solution 349
Lesson 4: Organizations are microcosms of the wider society from which they
originate. As a result, they are likely to be reflections of the
monocultural values and practices of the larger culture 350
Lesson 5: Organizations are powerful entities that inevitably resist change
and possess within their arsenal many ways to force compliance in
individuals 350
Lesson 6: When multicultural organizational development is required,
alternative helping roles that emphasize systems intervention must be part
of the role repertoire of the social worker 351
Lesson 7: Although remediation will always be needed, prevention is better
