Introduction
Why do people become development workers who support third sector groups?
How do they get there, and do they have ideas and plans about where they are heading?
SKiLD commissioned Stratagia Ltd in November 2007 to identify some of the factors that influence career development. Research included interviews with 37 new or existing development workers.
