Burnout in Blue confronts the problem of poor police performance and shows police supervisors how to identify and deal effectively with marginal, unresponsive subordinates. Few, if any books in the field offer such concrete, practical guidelines for improved police performance.

Editorial Reviews

Review

“This text is a must for all aspiring or serving police supervisors. It sincerely deals with a problem that has perplexed police union representatives and could go a long way toward easing labor/management confrontations regarding `marginal' police performance." Robert B. Kliesmet, General President International Union of Police Associations, AFL-CIO "Burnout in Blue: Managing The Marginal Police Performer is an important contribution to professional law enforcement. Today, as never before, the volume of crime and the limited resources allocated to provide police services places tremendous demands on our law enforcement agencies. This already difficult situation is compounded further by police employees who perform at a marginal level, thus diminishing the efficiency and effectiveness of the organization. The information provided in this book is well researched, insightful, and practical in terms of its application to productive and successful police operations. It is `must' reading for every police supervisor and manager."”–Jerald R. Vaughn International Association of Chiefs of Police
