It is designed for use in both undergraduate and graduate courses in police administration, management, leadership, and organizations. As a current of future employee of a police organization—sworn and civilian, frontline and supervisory—the topics are particularly salient, helping the reader understand boarder organizational decisions (e.g., why a particular strategy is adopted) and specific employee behaviors (e.g., what are common stressors in the field). In light of recent calls for reform, it places accidents and other errors in policing within an organizational context and discusses likely changes coming to the policing industry. —Preface Contents: Preface — Acknowledgments — Chapter 1.
