Managing Modern Youth Work aims to offer students on youth and community work courses as well as more experienced practitioners an accessible and relevant "how to" introduction to management. At less than 150 pages it covers a surprisingly large amount of ground, including managing people and resources, organisations and culture, and the changing political and policy environment.

Most youth workers find themselves in management roles more by accident than by design, and many will welcome this book and the insight it offers on managing in a youth and community work context. The chapter on managing projects is useful. It explores all the key aspects of developing and delivering projects with a particularly helpful section on monitoring and evaluation. Similarly, the book offers some very valuable advice on managing yourself and your workload.
