Review: I was a little hesitant in purchasing this book since it was written by a military leader who likely operated in an environment where authoritarian leadership is the norm. My concern was unfounded. It is written for police leaders and in language that is easily understood. The author has some great insight into what it takes to be an effective leader. More importantly though, he gives some concrete examples and ideas on how to act as a leader. The case histories are based in hard reality with examples most police officers will be able to relate to. I really can't say enough good things about this book. It should be required reading for all police brass.

Summary: Excellent!
Review: The book offers practical techniques and "can do" leadership strategies for over-coming obstacles police leaders encounter everyday. It encourages the reader to answer three basic leadership questions: Where am I going? How will I get there? How will I know when I have arrived? EFFECTIVE POLICE LEADERSHIP is inspirational; the reader learns the importance of developing vision and direction.

Summary: The best study guide for police leadership!!!!
Review: This book is such a great leadership review!
Anyone who reads this book should get a better understanding of how to become a great leader. The text is clear and to the point. After reading Baker's leadership book there is NO excuse for poor performance. It was nice to read a book that had all the information on this topic and was actually easy to comprehend.
If you don't get the principles of leadership after reading this book, you never will. I recommend it to my friends as the best study guide out there.
Grab a copy and see for yourself.
