<p>This book draws upon a range of theoretical and empirical research to explore contemporary debates about police leadership. Focusing upon leadership styles, ethics, integrity and professionalism, workforce diversity, legitimacy and accountability, it reviews the changing context and nature of leadership over time and explores the gains, losses, tensions and challenges that different leadership models bring to policing. Leadership is present at various levels within the police service and this collection reflects upon appropriate leadership qualities and requirements for different roles and at different ranks. The book also considers the difference between leadership and management in an attempt to capture fuller debates within police leadership. Part one surmises the contextual backdrop to current thinking and the primary challenges facing leadership in the police service. Part two highlights the changing face of leadership through an exploration of the call for greater diversity within the ranks of police leadership, and the final section examines police leadership beyond England and Wales. Through this, Police Leadership explores how the challenges facing police leadership in England and Wales share similarities with those in Scotland, Northern Ireland, Greece, North America, and Australia in the face of the pressures of political and economic uncertainty.</p>

“At a time of profound change in policing, not least in its higher echelons, we need a clear sense of what leadership in policing consists and why it matters. This volume brings together many of the leading scholars, reporting up-to-date research, in order to consider the current position and likely futures confronting police managers. From evidence to ethics and diversity to direct entry, both in Europe and beyond, the challenges are immense, and <i>Leadership in Policing </i>offers a thorough examination of the key questions facing the police service in the early twenty first century” (Professor Tim Newburn, London School of Economics, UK)<p>“This edited collection draws on a range of theoretical and empirical research to explore the changing face of police leadership in the UK and beyond. It reviews contemporary debates about police leadership and its challenges from the perspectives of scholars and practitioners. A much needed and timely contribution to the literature” (Professor Jenny Fleming, University of Southampton, UK)</p>
