Description

Change is an inevitable part of any correctional institution, as new trends and initiatives constantly bombard the system. Introducing the concept of organizational capacity, this volume examines leadership, management, and organizational culture and how they apply to correctional agencies, enabling administrators to identify the changes that can be successfully implemented within the organizational context. Topics discussed include management theory, the importance of effective communication, information capital, the human element of change, the concept of evidence-based practice, and the role of evaluation and outcome assessment in the process of improving correctional practice.
