In order to create sustainable community development, Hopkins (2008) stated that it involves the ability to work with others from different experiences to close the gap of social capital. Creating and continuing good relationships with local community’s members require ability to recognize personal differences. Beem (1999) mentioned that to build or rebuild community and trust among its members by utilizing social capital, it demands face-to-face communication. In terms of citizen participation and community design, it is essential to provide enough resources for a local community to work together to produce desirable outcomes that benefit the group members or the third party. This mutual opportunity to share knowledge on public issues offer

1 Understand the principles and practice of person-centred thing,planning and reviews. 1.1 Explain what person -centred thinking is, and how it relates to person-centred reviews and person centred planning. Person centred thinking is a set of values, skills and tools used in getting to know someone by Person Centred Planning and in personalising of services used by people who need supports provided by social or health care. It is separating what is important to, from what is important for the individual and finding a balance between them.

Person-centered planning can help to create new lifestyles, find the right living enviroment and jobs, diverse kinds of support (informal and formal)and new social relationships. There are four main approaches to person centred practice, “Pathway” planning, “Maps” planning, “Person centred portfolios” and “Personal Future Planning.” Discussion will prove that each shares characteristics that explicitly emphasise the personal empowerment of service users, in which the principal direction for support generates from those for whom planning is being carried
This | | |mode of thinking meant that organisations took decisions for people about how they should live and the nature of the care | | |they received. This has changed, or is in the process of changing, to an approach where support strategies are negotiated | | |and agreed between service providers and service users. | | |This philosophy that underpins practice can be thought of as guiding principles of person-centred planning, and includes | | |increased community access and inclusion, the development of relationships, greater opportunities for choice, the | | |advancement of valued and respected roles, and the development of improved personal skills (Magito-Mclaughlin et al., | | |2002).

The concepts of power sharing, consultation and joint ways of working are essential for effective service provision. Social care professionals need to understand the importance of promoting autonomy with individuals. They also need to be aware of their own roles and responsibilities and how they relate to others within the sector. Organisations therefore now need to think creatively about how to recruit and involve individuals in planning and delivering of care services and the need to invest time and effort in effective “partnership working. This ensures that the individual young person who is in our care is placed at the centre.
The journey that a person takes in life similar to Santiago’s in The Alchemist clearly illustrates the factors that contribute towards one’s identity. The relationships established during this journey also play a part in establishing a person’s identity. The positive and negative experiences in life along with the friendships established also plays a key role in making a person’s identity. Determination has a huge impact on our identity. Determination is focusing on our goal and putting all the effort in our power to achieve it.

This implies that leadership requires the harmonization of individual needs, task needs and the needs of the group. It is about getting the job done while meeting individual and group needs and maintaining team spirit. The above definitions point to leadership as a process of social influence in which one person can enlist the aid and support of others in the accomplishment of a common task. There are new models of leadership, transformational and communal leadership, which define leadership as a social process in which interpersonal relationships and interaction at all levels in an organization are key to effective leadership (Carless, 1998: Fletcher, 2004).
