The Managing of Police Organizations, now in its sixth edition, remains the foundational book for anyone or any course in police leadership, management, and organization. It is uniquely designed to inform, inspire, and engage the reader whether the reader be practitioner, student, or both. The journey begins with leadership styles and concludes with community-oriented policing. The main focus of the text is on one's character and one's competency to lead, manage, and organize a police agency.
