INSIDE
Policing the streets is less precarious than the intrigue and drama behind the balusters and bulletproof glass of a police station. The interaction with the public can be the escape our men and women in blue need to avoid the administrative bureaucracy that controls their actions and often dictates what they can and cannot do. Orchard Hill PD is not immune to the intrigue and changes that drive today's police departments. There are two things police officers hate. First is the way things are. The second is changing the way things are. Some try to hide on the graveyard or night shift to get away from the inside workings of a PD, but sooner or later, it catches up to everyone, even Detective H...

Available Time
The new media jaded the public's views of law enforcement across the country. Granted, police work is not always pretty, but with over 200,000 law enforcement officers having an average of ten contacts per day (and many with more), the views that are being presented are not fair and balanced. That is not law enforcement in the majority of communities. Readers can still get excited about a cop thriller and the suspense of cases without being dragged into the abyss of brutality, racism and antagonizm or even excessive force.

Dialogic Organization Development
A Dynamic New Approach to Organizational Change Dialogic Organization Development is a compelling alternative to the classical action research approach to planned change. Organizations are seen as fluid, socially constructed realities that are continuously created through conversations and images. Leaders and consultants can help foster change by encouraging disruptions to taken-for-granted ways of thinking and acting and the use of generative images to stimulate new organizational conversations and narratives. This book offers the first comprehensive introduction to Dialogic Organization Development with chapters by a global team of leading scholar-practitioners addressing both theoretical foundations and specific practices.
