Policing Insight - Subscription at source 15/8/2024 Feature, Interview The Show Must Go On! An Autoethnography of (Re)socialization into Senior Policing in England and the Prominence of “Leadership Theatre” This article explores how socialization impacts upon senior police officers in England and perpetuates organizational cultures. We explore the hitherto recondite world of the senior police manager by examining how a superintendent is (re)socialized to conform with a prevailing culture after returning from a two-and-a-half-year secondment. Analytic autoethnography situates first-hand experience within an academic framework. We find that Van Maanen’s motivational factors of punishment-centered supervision, keeping a low profile, narrow perceptions of “real” police work, and conflicting role demands still persist. This suppresses alternative leadership styles, contradicts policing’s espoused progressive philosophies, and leads to “leadership theatre”—where the impression of control and effectiveness outweighs delivery.

As the saying goes, ‘you can't arrest your way out of crime’, nor can you police your way out of a recruitment crisis, or baton-charge to improve trust. Policing faces some novel challenges, but not every policing problem is unique and there are ideas from outside policing that can help. This article makes suggestions on ways to resolve some of the issues raised in the Casey review using evidence from different disciplines and concludes with some reasons why research evidence is not routinely used in policing and what can be done to change this.
