In this episode, we present a fascinating journey of how a simple plan transforms as it ascends through the ranks of a police department, evolving into an unquestionable policy. Consider the dynamics of organizational communication, the challenges of maintaining clarity, and the inevitable distortions that occur as messages are relayed from one level of authority to another. Through a compelling narrative, we reveal how assumptions shape decisions, and how ensuring intent at every level is crucial for effective leadership.

Join us as we present a humorous and all-too-true story of policymaking and give you a glimpse of its impact on the organizational realities policing. A thought-provoking discussion brought to you by the Future Policing Institute. Learn more about our work and initiatives at www.futurepolicing.org.
