This may help staff to develop more positive views
of people with MID and to become more aware
of their resilience, resources and competences, and
in particular their ability to come up with solutions
themselves (Lloyd & Dallos 2006, 2008).
Indeed, solution-focused principles and techniques
developed in a therapeutic context can easily be
adapted to a staff context. This also implies possibility
of using SFBT as tool for non-therapeutic
coaching. As in SFBT, staff actually can develop a
strengths-based mindset: focusing on solutions
rather than problems, on strengths rather than
weaknesses, and asking more than telling.
