In this accessible and insightful book, award-winning psychologists?Dr Karen Treisman?and?Dr Mandy Davis?answer?40 of the most common and thorny questions asked and dilemmas faced by leaders, managers, and practitioners. They draw on real-world experience, psychological insight, everyday lessons learned use reflective questioning. Examples of some of the 40 questions explored include, "How do we do trauma-informed with funding cuts?", "Is trauma informed just about being sweet and nice?" and "How about when it collides and jars with existing policies and procedures?". Bridging theory and practice,?this curious and reflective book is a companion for creating trauma-informed cultures across health, education, social care, and justice settings.?Grounded, practical, and inspiring,?it is essential?for professionals and policymakers?seeking?to?move beyond intention and towards meaningful, lasting change with integrity, courage, humility, and curiosity.
