THIS MANUAL IS DESIGNED TO GIVE INSIGHTS INTO THE DETERMINANTS OF EFFECTIVE DISCIPLINE MANAGEMENT AND TO PROVIDE PRACTITIONERS WITH RECOMMENDATIONS FOR IMPROVING AND UNDERSTANDING THEIR DISCIPLINARY PRACTICES. |
| Abstract:
|
IT FIRST EXPLORES THE SOURCES OF THE TRADITIONAL VIEW OF DISCIPLINE AS A MANAGEMENT TECHNIQUE TO CONTROL EMPLOYEE BEHAVIOR AND DISCUSSES THE USEFULNESS OF TOOLS FOR EFFECTIVE DISCIPLINE. SUBSEQUENT CHAPTERS DEVELOP THE IDEA THAT THE PROCESS IS SIMILAR FOR THE HANDLING OF ALL MAJOR DISCIPLINARY CASES, DEAL WITH THE EFFECTS OF THE PERSONALITIES, SKILLS, MOTIVES, AND ROLES OF PEOPLE INVOLVED IN THE MANAGEMENT OF DISCIPLINE, AND PRESENT A COMPACT, PRACTICAL OUTLINE OF THE OPERATIONAL FACTORS WHICH BEAR MOST DIRECTLY ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF DISCIPLINE. THESE NARRATIVE DISCUSSIONS ARE THEN TRANSLATED INTO PROTOTYPES ESTABLISHING RULES OF CONDUCT, AND DISCIPLINARY PROCEDURES DESIGNED TO PROMOTE EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT CONTROL OF OFFICER BEHAVIOR, AND TO PROVIDE OFFICERS WITH A DEGREE OF PERSONAL FREEDOM APPROPRIATE TO CONTEMPORARY CONDITIONS. THE PROTOTYPES ARE WRITTEN IN THE FORMAT OF SOME DEPARTMENTAL GENERAL ORDERS FOLLOWING EACH, HOWEVER, IS A COMMENTARY WHICH EXPLAINS THE POLICY CONSIDERATIONS AND LEGAL PRINCIPLES UNDERLYING THE SECTION AND ILLUSTRATES ITS APPLICATION. APPENDED MATERIALS INCLUDE A DESCRIPTION OF THE STUDY METHODOLOGY, AN INDEXED 80-PAGE ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY OF SELECTED CASES ON POLICE DISCIPLINE, A COPY OF THE FIELD SURVEY INSTRUMENTS, AND A TABLE OF CASES. FOR THE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AND THE SUPERVISORS' HANDBOOK, SEE NCJ-37586 AND 37585 RESPECTIVELY |
