(2002) Stated is that: "On a more practical level, these findings indicate a range of service activities that may be particularly helpful for children and their families which include: (1) Increasing access to and uptake of a range of options for respite care; (2) Increasing the availability of practical support during school holidays; (3) Providing educational and therapeutic environments that reflect the specific needs of children with ASD (e.g., sensory sensitivities); (4) Increasing access to and uptake of effective and practical advice to families on, among other things, managing difficult behavior; and (5) Increasing the availability of evidence-based therapeutic approaches to stress management to the primary carers of children with ASD.

North America is perhaps
By improving their self knowledge, leaders can change and develop as leaders of people. Clinical supervision for leaders is sometimes called administrative clinical supervision. This is managerial clinical supervision with a focus on problems related to leadership and organization of work, particularly human relations issues.

Industries that face stiff competition may favor and encourage an aggressive approach from employees that produces rapid results, rather than thoughtful, strategic action. When the gains cannot be realized in the desired time frame, there is a temptation to implement short cuts; resulting in fraud."
