Abstract

PurposeThis study aims to provide information concerning practices for creating strategic plans in municipal policing organizations and their use in practice.Design/methodology/approachThis study surveyed a sample of Canadian police services, including four of the ten largest services in Canada, to investigate their planning practices and the study’s findings to the results of a content analysis of strategic plans reported by Rogers et al. (2020). This study did not conduct content analysis and therefore relied on the findings of Rogers et al. (2020).FindingsSome respondents indicated they do not apply some practices generally considered advisable. Other respondents indicated they undertake a practice even though doing so is not evident from a review of the associated strategic plans.Research limitations/implicationsThis study is based entirely on self-reported survey data. The study did not interview respondents to find out why they responded as they did.Practical implicationsThis study points to specific improvements municipal policing organizations could adopt which offer the prospect of creating better strategic plans and better strategic planning outcomes.Social implicationsPolicing organizations are important institutions in society. As a regular part of their activities, they interact with a broad cross-section of the society within which they operate. This paper presents ideas concerning how policing organizations can improve how they adapt themselves to their social environment to improve those interactions.Originality/valueNo other study collects self-reported data on how police services conduct strategic planning and use strategic plans at this level of detail.

警务中的战略规划实践:来自实地的证据
目的本研究旨在为城市警务组织制定战略计划及其在实践中的应用提供相关信息。本研究调查了加拿大警察服务的样本,包括加拿大十大服务中的四个,以调查他们的规划实践和罗杰斯等人(2020)报告的战略计划内容分析结果的研究结果。本研究没有进行内容分析,因此依赖于Rogers et al.(2020)的研究结果。调查结果一些受访者表示,他们没有采用一些通常被认为是可取的做法。其他答复者表示,他们采取了一种做法,尽管从对相关战略计划的审查来看,这样做并不明显。研究局限性/启示本研究完全基于自我报告的调查数据。这项研究并没有采访受访者,以找出他们这样回答的原因。本研究指出了城市警务组织可以采取的具体改进措施,为制定更好的战略计划和更好的战略规划成果提供了前景。社会意义警察组织是社会上重要的机构。作为他们日常活动的一部分,他们与他们所处的社会的各个阶层进行广泛的互动。本文提出了有关警务组织如何改进他们如何适应社会环境以改善这些互动的想法。原创性/价值另一项研究收集了警方如何在这一细节层面进行战略规划和使用战略计划的自我报告数据。
