Details
Management functions and organizational principles are defined and explained while providing an emphasis on evidence-based policing, diversity principles, and developing police agencies as learning organizations. A concluding chapter covers contemporary themes such as community engagement and collaboration, important issues such as police legitimacy and predictive policing, and modern management perspectives such as emotional intelligence and servant leadership. Case studies based on real-life events invite students to practice managing conflicting circumstances, and Modern Policing blog posts offer up-to-date news and breaking developments in the policing world.
This book is suitable for undergraduates studying police management and supervision in the US and for practitioners seeking promotion to senior management roles. The ancillaries available include instructor’s manual, test bank, and lecture slides for faculty and case studies for student use.
