Police Chiefs invoke change with Officer accountability
?Since the 2020 George Floyd incident, there have been many discussions regarding Police accountability culture. It’s a delicate balance to reduce misconduct, while improving agency culture and officer wellness.
If there is no accountability culture engrained into?every fiber of your organization, gross misconduct will occur at some point… and it will negatively make the news.
?
Accountability Culture?
The way agency policies are enacted and enforced, incorporating a consistent unified culture with measurable standards is where accountability culture starts.
It goes beyond policies, documentation, and enforcement, and making sure the culture of every employee inside the agency followed throughout their workday.
?
3 Culture Breakdowns
1 Spreading of Rumors, and Allowing Toxic Behavior
2 Use of Profanity
3 Sweeping Misconduct Under the Rug
The seasoned supervisor that doesn’t care to make change or to help others in any way, tells everyone…?
“Suck it up Buttercup, deal with it!”
?
?
Getting bad press, million-dollar lawsuits, community distrust, and negative media attention, all adds up to low morale and losing good employees. ?
When an Officer’s gross misconduct leads to jail time, their own lives are at risk, like?Dereck Chauvin getting stabbed?multiple times while in prison. This is a vicious cycle… and saying it will never happen is only taking a blind eye, while failing to improve an agency’s accountability culture.

Retired at New York Deparen't of Corrections and NYPD
11 个月Well there’s nothing better than seeing and hearing the people you’re supervising! It’s just like patrolling the streets and taking walks down a tier or quad in a jail! When you’re responsible for so many people and officers dealing with the public safety system and police officers as well as corrections officers the best way to find out what’s best is making your rounds a regular occurrence in the streets and jails and also getting familiar with the people you work for!
