Assett Based Consulting

Asset Based Consulting

Asset Based Consulting is a partnership that specialises in consultancy support for local government, the NHS, community and voluntary organisations. They use an 'appreciative' or an 'assets' approach to their work.
"In practice this means that we start with what is working in an organisation or a community," said Trevor Hopkins, one of the partners. "Individuals, families, communities and organisations have the capacity, skills, knowledge, connections and the potential to develop in a positive direction," added Jayne Hopkins. "In an asset based approach the glass is half-full, not half-empty."
As well as detailing the consultancy support that Trevor and Jayne can offer, the website also contains resources that will be useful to anyone wanting to take an asset approach to leadership, improvement or development.

People-Centred Public Health

Jane South, Judy White and Mark Gamsu
The Policy Press (2012) ISBN 9781447305309

People-Centred Public Health examines how members of the public can be involved in delivering health improvement, primarily as volunteers or lay health workers. With a foreword by Professor Sir Michael Marmot and Dr Mike Grady, this timely book draws on a major study of lay engagement in public health, using case studies and real life examples to provide a comprehensive and accessible overview of policy, practice and research in this area. In an economic and political climate where there is renewed interest in the role of the citizen, the authors challenge old orthodoxies in public health and build a coherent argument for radical change in the way public agencies support lay action.

"Thank you for an inspirational talk and session today at the One Voice Network Conference. I found myself wishing that we could've had more time in which to explore the creative processes of appreciative inquiry. I felt the potential for discovery and connections of trust between individual participants, even in the short time allocated for our exercise."

"There is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its success, than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things. For the reformer has enemies in all those who profit by the old order, and only lukewarm defenders in all those who would profit by the new order, this lukewarmness arising partly from fear of their adversaries ...and partly from the incredulity of mankind, who do not truly believe in anything new until they have had actual experience of it."

Niccolo Machiavelli
