• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This study examines the MANAGER (Management and
Accountability through Geographic
Review) management model of the Arlington (Texas)
Police Department. The study shows that MANAGER has
the ability to incorporate the facilitative elements
of a learning organization. The institutional tools,
crime statistics, crime maps, hot spots, and crime
analysis, organizational design through geographic
policing, and the periodic local and central
meetings are major elements of MANAGER in building a
learning organization. A multi-dimensional survey of
the APD s organizational performance is another
issue of this research. The researcher measured the
contribution of MANAGER to the APD s performance
through a quasi-experimental time-series designs.
The results indicate that the MANAGER has not made a
significant contribution to the APD s organizational
performance except in moderately controlling crime
and clearing the cases, and significantly reducing
firearm use. This case study adds value to the
enormous Compstat descriptive studies by exploring
the contributions of the MANAGER, a Compstat-like
program, to the organizational performance of the
APD.
