From an organisational point of view, the present paper, taking the case of the Norwegian police, sheds light on the appropriateness of changing the organisational structure in response to the crisis. Based on research interviews with crisis managers, it investigates how they experience the change of command structure and, subsequently, the effect on the management of the crisis. The analysis generated four findings. First, activities in the control room increase at the same time as the crisis organisation is reorganising. Second, the change leads to uncertainties between the crisis managers in terms of roles and responsibilities which can potentially impede the crisis management. Third, human factors affect the information flow between the managers. Lastly, the control room operators feel themselves to be the outsiders of the crisis management. The dynamics of the findings are further discussed by applying structural-instrumental and institutional perspectives. The study is relevant in respect of understanding the interaction between the formal and informal organisational aspects within crisis management. Police Practice and Research 17/6/2021 Research article Exploring Recruits’ Motivations to Enter Policing in Small Island Developing States: the Case of the Trinidad and Tobago Police Service Internationally, there is a substantial amount of research on motivations to enter the police profession; however, scant research attention has been paid to the motivations of individuals in Small Island Developing States (SIDS) such as Trinidad and Tobago who choose policing as a career path. As a result, this research was designed to analyze motivations for entering the police profession by gathering data from recruits who had recently entered police academy training in Trinidad and Tobago. The research utilized a quantitative approach with self-administered questionnaires as the data-gathering instrument. Using data collected from 160 police recruits at the Trinidad and Tobago Police Service (TTPS) police academy who were two months into their induction training, this study attempts to answer four questions related to their motivations for entering policing. Statistical analyses of the data included comparisons between groups in the sample (males/females) to determine the existence of competing motivations. The results indicate that job security was the main motivation for entry into the TTPS and that the motivations of male recruits were more altruistic when compared with those of female recruits, which were generally self-serving. Other results and implications for policy are discussed.
