Scenario: After a long and extensive internal affairs investigation, in your police department, it is was determined that corruption and substantiated civil liberties violations have eroded the trust between the citizens and the police. One of the many recommendations made in the internal affairs investigations was for the department to re-design the training curricula in both the police academy for new recruits as well as in-service training covering the following core areas:
The organizational culture and its impact on its members
The impact that a police union can have on officer accountability and organizational reform as well public perception.
Issues surrounding formal occupational socialization versus informal socialization
The negative effects subculture issues can have on an organization’s members
What effect(s) that various “types of power” have on employee compliance with organizational rules, regulations, and legitimacy.
