Synopsis:

For courses in Police Administration and Management.

 

Proactive Police Management is widely used throughout criminal justice and police science programs because it provides a review of the various approaches to police management using a contemporary and proactive approach. The seventh edition has been extensively revised, including new information on technology, operational and fiscal planning, management styles, training techniques, budgeting methods and national security concerns. It continues to balance planning and communication; theory and practice; and authoritative and participatory leadership approaches–emphasizing a consultative management style that enables all stakeholders to effectively anticipate, prevent and react to crime within their community.

Review:

"The greatest strengths of this text are its progressive approach, the manner in which controversial issues are addressed, and the inclusion of practical data such as officer deployment plans, budgets, and training curricula." ― John Race, University of Pittsburgh
