Edmonton Journal (Canada) 28/8/2024 News Role models in police leadership – When the symbolic becomes reality – Reinforcement or ways forward? This article investigates police leaders as role models. The importance of observing several role models in partial use is demonstrated. It also shows how established role models might result in reinforcement of the police leadership culture, exemplified through first-line managers that are legitimized by being ‘good coppers’. Those that inspire others when rocking the boat are limited.
