      Forward

      Jerry Carlton, a retired Lieutenant from the Nevada Division of Investigation has more than 30-years law enforcement experience. He is a graduate from the University of Louisville, Southern Police Institute. He served with the Lyon County Sheriff's Department, in Yerington, Nevada, the Reno Police Department, the Tehama County Sheriff's Department, in Red Bluff, California and the Nevada Division of Investigation.

      He has participated in almost all aspects of law enforcement; from S.W.A.T. commander to motorcycle officer, from patrol officer, to resident deputy, from shift supervisor, to commander of a multijurisdictional narcotic task force.

      The purpose of this vehicle of information is to provide insight into the management of law enforcement organizations in the most limited form. Due to the sheer number of problems occurring daily, the law enforcement manager, sometimes need to go back to basics. Leadership, hiring, dealing with employees, maintaining the lines of communication, and how to listen are the focus chapters of this book. The last chapter is a refresher for the law enforcement manager, who someday may find himself or herself as a defendant.

      Don't worry, it's no big thing, no one cares anyway, whispered the day shift supervisor.

      Listen, this is the problem and I'll give you a couple ideas to help overcome it, said the graveyard supervisor.

      Law enforcement seldom makes mistakes; and if you believe that, then the moon is made of cheese. We all make mistakes, some simple some quite serious. It's the supervisor's responsibility to see that mistakes are held to a minimum, mistakes are corrected and the mistake doesn't happen again. This is accomplished through leadership.

      Three different types of leadership:

      Autocratic

      Laissez-faire

      Holistic

      Other types exist but in one form or another the leadership qualities possessed or lacking fall into one of these
