- Summary:
- This book explores Norwegian police leadership and presents it as a comprehensive model for police leadership in liberal democracies. It responds to the recent calls to develop culture and strengthen leadership capacity, individually and collectively, in the Norwegian police in the context of two police reforms and terrorist attacks that have become a turning point in the Norwegian public and for the police. The model presented in this volume summarizes the competence that the legal and enforcement systems must be able to build in both the organization and individuals. It explores how police are led, how leaders should act, and how organizations ensure that ideals are linked to practice. Based on a wide range of research, this book is ideal for law enforcement leaders and policymakers looking for a roadmap for implementing, assessing, and building a successful leadership and management strategy.
