Planning and Evaluation for Public Safety Leaders presents
field-tested techniques and tips to help public safety leaders
effectively manage their organizations and overcome challenges.
Organizations and agencies operating within the public safety
sector are unique in many respects. These unique elements provide a
different context in which planning, and performance measurement
occur. Without recognizing this particular context, most public
planning texts ignore crucial pieces of the puzzle when it comes to
effectively achieving and measuring public safety outcomes. This
book's practical approach equips students with approachable
explanations specific to the public safety context, and practical
tools for public safety leaders that can apply to their
organizations. Key Features * Each chapter begins with a real-world
case from the public safety sector that highlights the importance
or possible application of the information covered. * Cases are
written in close coordination with the public safety practitioners
to illustrate how the concepts covered in the chapter work in a
real-world public safety context. * "Put it into Practice"
Reflections at the end of each chapter allow new or future public
safety leaders to apply the material directly to their current
organization. * Boxes describe how to use and apply specific
methods in a concise and easy to find tools addressing planning and
evaluation challenges as they arise * Key terms and application
questions written specifically for students, focus in on the most
important concepts and terms from the text. * Overviews of relevant
theoretical and scholarly work on the concepts offer connections
with course material.
