Abstract
The role of social work administrators as change agents who can improve organizational outcomes is receiving increased attention in this era of higher expectations for effectiveness and efficiency. This article describes two course assignments in which administration concentration students complete a management audit of their practicum agency, and then design a change plan for addressing an identified weak area. Data collected from audits over a four-year period are presented, and examples of proposed and implemented change plans are presented. The author also provides suggestions for enhancing education for social work administration.
