Eine professionelle pädagogische Haltung bildet das Rückgrat für die Handlungsfähigkeit im Berufsalltag. Belastungen, hohe Anforderungen und Stress beeinträchtigen mitunter diese professionelle Handlungsfähigkeit. Im vorliegenden Buch wird aufgezeigt, wie eine gut entwickelte Selbstkompetenz als Fundament der eigenen Haltung helfen kann, damit umzugehen. Selbstkompetenz als innerer Kompass kann bewusst gemacht und gestärkt werden und bietet damit einen Ansatzpunkt, Ressourcen für den Berufsalltag zu gewinnen. Grundlagenwissen zur Selbstkompetenz und eine spezifisch für Fortbildungen entwickelte, erfahrungsbasierte Methodik wird mit diesem Buch zur Verfügung gestellt. Darüber hinaus werden WeiterbildnerInnen und PädagogInnen anwendungsorientiert konkrete Beispiele gegeben, wie an dem Thema im Rahmen von Aus- und Weiterbildung gearbeitet werden kann. WERT (Wissen, Erleben, Reflexion, Transfer) stellt ein praxiserprobtes Konzept zur Stärkung der professionellen Haltung von pädagogischen Fach- und Lehrkräften dar.
