Blackstone's Leadership for Sergeants and Inspectors

Beschreibung

Thoroughly revised to reflect significant changes in policing over the past decade, this new edition of Blackstone's Leadership for Sergeants and Inspectors offers an accessible, practical guide to leadership in routine and complex situations across all areas of police work. In policing, the need to demonstrate leadership can arise at any moment: in public order situations, community meetings and among colleagues at work. Enhancing your leadership skills can help ensure that you inspire and motivate others, improving interactions with the wide range of people you will encounter, from members of the public to social services and partner agencies. This book discusses leadership and teamwork skills through a series of questions to consider during your everyday police work. With clear and concise explanations, the author draws on 30 years' experience as a police officer to bring you detailed theory and practice across a range of leadership areas, including ethical professionalism, stress management, equality, diversity and neurodiversity, multi-cultural teams, delegation, coaching, misconduct and discipline. Helpful hints and tips provide context to leadership issues and examples of leadership skills in practice. The book's 32 skills checklists act as a 'tool kit' for the busy police officer needing to deal with events efficiently and effectively. Whether you are just embarking on your police career, have been recently promoted, or simply want to refresh your leadership skills, Leadership for Sergeants and Inspectors will support and assist you, helping you to get the best out of your team, your colleagues, and your encounters with the public.
