Are you asking people to work outside their competency/paygrade?

12th September 2014

No.

AMBIT refers to ones "sphere of influence" - and as a method of practice encourages that the limits of this are brought into explicit awareness/acknowledgement, rather than this being implicit.
There is a wide a range of material in the AMBIT manual, from general material that would be relevant to all practitioners, to more specific manualised Interventions that may be of interest to many - by way of "making sense of" (Mentalizing!) the actions of workers more specifically focused on that aspect of work, but of specific use to a smaller range of workers.
If there is doubt or anxiety for a worker about "what should I do?" in a specific case then this would seem to be a useful prompt for using the SupervisoryStructures in the team to help mentalize this.
