The ‘ears of the hippopotamus’ is a metaphor encouraging us to look below the surface to understand what is going on. This is my desire, aided by the 24 beautiful hippos illustrated by Laura Stagno. I refer to them as the 8 Role Trinities. Each Trinity relates to one of 8 typical tasks performed by a Social Practitioner. A Trinity consists of three roles that might be playing out under the surface: the Social Practitioner’s view of their own role when performing that task; the ‘internal’ view of their colleagues, management or client; and the ‘external’ view held by the community.

Being pulled into multiple roles to meet divergent expectations can create tensions. I wish to convey that the divergence is not something that needs ‘fixing’, instead, it reveals valid perspectives to be made explicit, understood and balanced.
