You Be the Chief Assignment Dolores Baker DeVry University JADM413 Police Administration Professor William Clark April 16, 2023

You Be the Chief Assignment The face of policing in 10 years will be very different. I plan to remain active in national policing conversations and stay informed of trends in the field to keep the Greenfield Police Department at the forefront of modern policing. As part of my responsibilities, I will ensure that the department's policies and procedures are updated consistently with current trends and best practices. As part of my efforts, I will strive to create a culture of continuous learning and development within the department so that officers and administrators can stay current on the latest developments in law enforcement. To lead an American police force in the future, you need to plan and anticipate the changes to come. As a result of the demographic shift, American policing will undergo a significant change soon. There is a debate, however, over whether significant changes should occur every ten years in policing strategies. Some advocate complete overhauls of policing strategies and argue incremental changes are more effective. Leaders of police departments should remain open to the latest research and reevaluate their strategies as the needs of the community evolve. Many ethnicities live in the United States, and police departments must prepare for the challenges of serving a diverse population. It is also vital for police leaders to recognize the unique needs of the aging population so that they can develop policing strategies that are tailored to their unique needs. The trend towards private security is another factor that will affect policing. As more businesses and individuals turn to private security companies, the role of traditional law enforcement may change. Police leaders must be aware of the potential impact of private security on their department's operations and determine how to work collaboratively with private security companies. The rapid pace of technology is also changing American policing. Body cameras, drones, and predictive policing software are examples of how technology transforms law enforcement. Police leaders must stay abreast of the latest technological advancements and evaluate their effectiveness in improving police operations while considering privacy concerns and potential misuse.

Leaders of the police department of the future must possess several essential traits to succeed in this changing environment. They must be innovative and adaptable, recognizing trends and challenges as they arise and responding appropriately. Additionally, they need to rely on data-driven strategies and decision-making to inform their decision-making. To effectively police, police must also commit to transparency and accountability, as trust between police and the community is essential. As a last step, I will continue to build trust with the Greenfield community and strengthen relationships. For the Greenfield Police Department to effectively serve the community's citizens, successful policing is crucial. I want to listen to the community and be open to any feedback or suggestions it may have. At the end of the day, I aim to make sure that the department is an efficient, modernized organization able to deliver services to the community on time and adapt to future developments. To conclude, police leaders must anticipate and plan for the changes that will affect American policing in the future. Police leaders must be open to reevaluating and adapting their strategies to meet community needs and incorporate the latest research, even if significant changes are unnecessary every ten years. For police leaders to succeed in this changing environment, they must possess innovation, data-driven decision-making, and a commitment to transparency and accountability. Public safety and building community trust can be improved by police leaders staying ahead of the curve and adapting to change.
