Sommario/riassunto

Transformational Collaborative Outcomes Management (TCOM) is a comprehensive, multi-level conceptual framework for system management and improvement. This book provides a comprehensive understanding of TCOM by using person-centered, collaborative



processes for decision making. The issue with current human services systems is that there is a lack of access to care and that the system is focused on providing services as cheaply as possible. TCOM focuses on helping the greatest number of people while maximizing effectiveness. By fully understanding the nature of the business of helping, the author seeks to offer ways to create and sustain effective and positively evolving helping systems. He lays out a series of goal-directed social change processes which allow people at every level of a system to begin a shift towards transformational practice and the emergence of transformational systems. Building on three decades of work in a large community of scholars and practitioners, this book will represent the first full description of the conceptual framework and will appeal to an interdisciplinary group of scholars across nonprofit management, healthcare management, and social work.
