Approach / Employees
As supervisor at a criminal justice agency tasked with the responsibility of relaying to the
staff the department’s approval to use body cameras, I believe the best approach for relaying this
information to employees would be by holding a training session. By holding a training session
employees get a hands on opportunity to learn how to use the cameras while having their
questions and concerns regarding the cameras addressed in the process. Moreover, during
training, supervisors would have the chance to explain the benefits of the cameras as it relates to
improving transparency and accountability in the public eye (Peterson, B., 2023) while further
ensuring that employees are comfortable with this new technology (Indeed, 2023).
Approach / Civilians
As supervisor at a criminal justice agency tasked with the responsibility of relaying to
community members that officers will now be equipped with body cameras, I believe the best
approach for relaying this message to the community would be through a televised news brief.
Use of a televised news brief would ensure that the message reaches the majority, if not all of the
community members. Moreover, holding a televised new brief would allow the speaker a chance
to explain the benefits of improved transparency and accountability for both the department and
the community (Peterson, 2023).
Technique
As mentioned above, I would use a different technique for the two groups. I would use a
training session for the department’s staff members and a televised news brief for the community
members.
