The book provides staff, tutors and students the needed information which enable them to analyze identify problems, formulate possible actions, and acquire experience that is important for autonomous practice. The book is designed to give students opportunities to analyze, synthesize, evaluate, and apply knowledge related to manage clients, patients and their relatives and manage effectively health programmes. The book will also equip the students and practitioners to be effective and efficient health care leaders. The book is organised in units; from concepts of change to power. It my hope that all students both at the University and Health Training Colleges pursuing Nursing, Midwifery and Allied Health Science will continue to find this book worth reading and applying in their relevant areas. ; Contents 1 Change 2 Behaviour change 3.
