DESCRIPTION:
The volume emphasizes the importance of personal leadership by the chief in facilitating change, setting standards, and fostering integrity.. It provides information for local government administrators and police executives on managing patrol, prevention, investigations, and transportation services; the special challenges of local drug control and criminal organizations; internal functions such as human resources, planning, and facilities design; and linkages with other governmental and nongovernmental agencies and service providers, including crime laboratories. This brand new revision of ICMA's classic police management reference includes new coverage of such cutting-edge issues as terrorism and community security, leadership and managing change, setting standards and measuring performance, information management and technological innovations, and strengthening police-community partnerships
"Good to Have" according to Sean M. Black. I found the book to be informative and helpful. This book is required reading for the Lieutenant's exam for my department. I plan to keep this one on my bookshelf.
