Résumé
This guide is for human resource professionals and police leaders responsible for leadership development in police services. It provides research-based theory and methods to enable police services to implement effective leadership development programs. The guide presents a model for policing leadership, describes the essential steps in building an effective leadership development program, and provides tools to support police services in developing their current and future leaders. This guide is closely aligned with two other guides, Introduction to Competency-Based Management in Police Services, and, Succession Management in Police Services. An understanding of the principles and processes presented in these guides is necessary for effective implementation of leadership development.
