Sergeants as Leaders: A Case Study of Transformational Leadership Among First-Line Supervisors in the Police Department Abstract This qualitative research examined the leadership styles and professional development practices of a police department, the reflective experiences of police sergeants as they transition from being patrol officers, and the perception of police sergeants of their career development. Specifically, this study sought to answer the following essential questions: (a) What are the self-reported and observed leadership styles and practices of police sergeants at the Echo Bay police department? (b) To what extent do police sergeants practice the tenants of transformational leadership, and (c) How do police departments develop the leadership competencies of their police sergeants. The researcher used four different techniques (a) in-depth interviews, (b) focus groups, (c) direct observations, and (d) a survey as part of the qualitative component of the research and the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire as part of its selection activity. The results using a coding process revealed some major themes that indicated that sergeants used idealized attributes, individualized consideration, inspirational motivation; all features of transformational leadership. The studied police department promoted professional development by offering tuition reimbursement, job enhancement, and job enrichment. The research revealed that the police department had an informal talent management system which included: coaching, mentoring, job rotation, and job expansion. The researcher recommended that further research should include the entire command structure (patrol officero t commissioner) and, most importantly, the institutionalization of a talent management system in which patrol officers ear exposed to leadership development early in their careers to help navigate the complex law enforcement landscape of the 21st century.

  • Capitol Insurrection at Center of Conservative Movement
    Capitol Insurrection At Center Of Conservative Movement: At Least 43 Governors, Senators And Members Of Congress Have Ties To Groups That Planned January 6th Rally And Riots. SUMMARY: On January 6, 2021, a rally in support of overturning the results of the 2020 presidential election “turned deadly” when thousands of people stormed the U.S. Capitol at Donald Trump’s urging. Even Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, who rarely broke with Trump, has explicitly said, “the mob was fed lies. They were provoked by the President and other powerful people.” These “other powerful people” include a vast array of conservative officials and Trump allies who perpetuated false claims of fraud in the 2020 election after enjoying critical support from the groups that fueled the Capitol riot. In fact, at least 43 current Governors or elected federal office holders have direct ties to the groups that helped plan the January 6th rally, along with at least 15 members of Donald Trump’s former administration. The links that these Trump-allied officials have to these groups are: Turning Point Action, an arm of right-wing Turning Point USA, claimed to send “80+ buses full of patriots” to the rally that led to the Capitol riot, claiming the event would be one of the most “consequential” in U.S. history. • The group spent over $1.5 million supporting Trump and his Georgia senate allies who claimed the election was fraudulent and supported efforts to overturn it. • The organization hosted Trump at an event where he claimed Democrats were trying to “rig the election,” which he said would be “the most corrupt election in the history of our country.” • At a Turning Point USA event, Rep.

  • NYSRPA Testimony to New York City Council 11/15/2004
    Testimony New York State Rifle & Pistol Association, Inc. Testimony Barry Cohen, Director – Public Relations, NYSRPA Patrick W. Brophy, Esq., General Counsel, NYSRPA City Council Hearing Public Safety Committee November 15, 2004 10:00 a.m. City Hall, New York City I am pleased to testify today on behalf of the New York State Rifle & Pistol Association, Inc. (“Association”). The New York State Rifle & Pistol Association is the New York State affiliate of the National Rifle Association of America (“NRA”). We have a variety of bills and resolutions before us this morning. And as usual, they are based on a variety of false hopes and false premises. Laws are for the law abiding. We have said this here before, and it bears repeating. Laws are for the law abiding. Imposing further burdens and restrictions on New York City’s heavily taxed and intensely regulated licensed gun owners, and its few remaining, heavily taxed and intensely regulated licensed dealers of firearms and ammunition, will not reduce crime. As we heard the Mayor’s Criminal Justice Coordinator say in a September 2003 hearing before this Committee, New York City’s licensed gun owners are not the problem.1 For this essential, transcending reason the Association opposes all of the intros and resolutions before us today. In addition, the Association opposes specific intros and resolutions on specific common sense and legal grounds as we will detail this morning (or as we have detailed in prior testimony, to which we will refer as necessary). 1See also Talcott J. Franklin, TEN YEARS LATER: AN ANALYSIS OF THE EFFECTS OF NEW YORK CITY'S MANDATORY SENTENCING LAW (1990)(Available at http://www.saf.org/journal/4_Franklin.htm ) (“Studies also show the proportion of ‘previously law-abiding’ murderers in New York City is extremely small.
