What is a One Page Profile?
A one-page profile is a personalized introduction to a person. It is an ‘at-a-glance’ way of knowing what people admire about them, what matters most to them and how to best support them.
This course will discuss one-page profiles for a DSW and one-page profiles for those you will be supporting.
The content is the same for both types of one-page profiles, but the focus will be slightly different.
