Abstract
Organizations and businesses alike all have managers and management styles that they abide by. Some may be company policy; while others seem to be implemented by the manager’s themselves. In this paper, three different management styles are explained; Scientific, human relations, and systems management styles. All have been used in different organizations, and some are still used today. In order for a business to effectively succeed in their goals, a certain management style needs to be used.
Management Styles The key to making any kind of business work depends on management and how management or managers manage the companies they work for. There

In the end, one department would be great, while all the others were different and didn’t sync well with the others.
Most Effective and Disadvantages In order for today’s criminal justice system to work correctly, the best management theory would be the systems theory. The criminal justice system needs to have a structured and organized system in order to make things work, the systems management theory focuses on the overall goals of the departments as a whole, rather than focusing just on one goal for each department. Criminal justice is a system; there are several different parts that need to work together in order for it to work. This would include all components, such as the courts, police, and corrections. They all need to be on the same page in order to keep the balance between the three and avoid chaos. A disadvantage of scientific management in criminal justice was that the style focused more on the production and the needs of the organizations over caring for the needs and wants of the employees. The disadvantages of the human relations theory, was that is focused too much on the employees. With too much focus on the employees, the goals of the organization became secondary. Employees were being rewarded, and soon, employees expected more for less work. (Peak, 2012).
Conclusion
All three different management styles explained above

Criminal Justice Administrators must be analytical and creative while looking at the needs of the people from the public’s perspective. Administrators can use corrective tools to identify objectives to meet and improve on. For example, Visual management allows Criminal Justice Administrators to realize that waste will always be present allowing room to improve performance. Administrators must take time to understand what creates a defect and what creates an opportunity. It is the responsibility of the Administrator to provide opportunities and incentives for employees. This will cause employees to become energized about hearing the voice of the customers. The presence of quality provides an opportunity for all employees to become knowledgeable and involved in meeting the needs of
I once believed the police and fire departments, court, correction, and social services to be independent entities that provided communities with individual services that sometimes complimented one another by the basic interchanging of information and services. Through this module, I have learned these entities are a very complex and although independent rely on inter-connectivity and communication comprise the criminal justice system. These entities share a common goal to uphold the law and maintain justice in our society (Silver, S. 2011. CJ in the USA an introduction to Criminal Justice. (1st ed., p. 1). The criminal justice system is divided into four major pillars. Within the pillars many divers jobs and skill sets come together to achieve this goal (Johnson, K. (2010). Jobs in criminal justice.

A report dated on April two thousand and seventeen stated that more than one hundred gay men have been arrested since the beginning of two thousand and seventeen. By the end of July, a report indicated that a hundred thirty more are looking for help since the persecution targeting the LGBTQ+ in Chechnya. Ethos is used by interviewing two former prisoners and victims during their time at the secret concentration prison camps.
Inmate culture is a concern to prison facility because of the impact it can burden upon the prison. The prison code, norm, values, and prison argot are part of their cultures. When an inmate enters into the correctional facility they will adopt a prison lifestyle. Therefore, when they are release many will do the" U-shape curve effective" according to Staton Wheeler. For instance, some inmates, that live a violent lifestyle will congregate with others with the same characteristics (Schmalleger & Smykia, 2016). In my opinion, a drug dealer or gang member will gain a position of importance in the prison setting it gives them a sense of power from other inmates. Donald Clemmer believes that inmates belief, value, and behaviors grow antisocial
The Bail Support Program Service began on the month of January in the year 2001 as the Pilot Bail Advocacy Program and lead by the Melbourne Magistrates Court and Corrections Victoria. In 2003, the pilot bail advocacy program grew and the management moved to the Magistrates Court of Victoria. On December 2004 it was fused with the Court Referral and Evaluation for Drug Intervention and Treatment Program.
Leaders of the criminal justice system need to think strategically. A challenge for public administration in the 21st century is to recognize the relevance of these
Given the state of the leadership roles and research conducted in both the police and correctional organizations, the authors recommend that the issues be addressed by future researchers. They were able to come up with a few solutions researchers could probably use. First there needs to be additional research on how criminal justice administrators actually lead their organizations (Stojkovic, Kalinich, Klofas 2015 p.211). Second, the contemporary models of leadership offered by organizational behavior theory need to be examined. The Contingency approaches should also be examined in relation to criminal justice organizations, along with refinement of instruments, which is able to test these theories in the criminal justice environment (Stojkovic, Kalinich, Klofas 2015 p.211). Third, there needs to be use of methodologies to look at the intricacies associated with the leadership process, in order to fully understand the leadership phenomenon in criminal justice (Stojkovic, Kalinich, Klofas 2015 p.211). Lastly, the focus of the expectations from our
This paper will describe my understanding of the text and of the lectures provided in the class. Unlike most classes, where I understood only my view of the text, this class was geared so each student would understand each other’s view. 3 An organization is a collective that has some boundary and internal structure that engages in activities related to some complex set of goals. Members of organizations attempt to meet their psychological, ego and emotional needs within the organization. Criminal justice organizations are particularly unique compared to other public or private sector organizations because of the governmental granted authority. Management within these organizations can be defined as the process by
Police, courts and corrections are part of criminal justice organizations. Each of these organizations face challenges every day and the leaders of these agencies must deal with these challenges (Duelin, 2010). The types of criminal justice leaders range from police chiefs and sheriffs to prison superintendents, and heads of government, state, or local task forces. Some of the challenges they confront are budget and staffing shortfalls, political perspectives on the roles of law enforcement personnel in society, and the changing nature of crime and the difficulties associated with keeping up with these trends (Bryant, 2010).
After reviewing these surveys, I feel much more aware of what is happening in California and the power I could have as a citizen. I feel it is very essential to be aware of propositions that will be/have been passed, even if I cannot vote yet. It is also important to know the effects the propositions can have on others and myself. Although most propositions have not affected me, I still have opinions on them.
The criminal justice system in today’s society is mocked, ridiculed, and criticized from every angle and aspect of the field. My experience with the criminal justice system has been from several different aspects. Some aspects led to positive interactions while others were negative. As a people, we all give a heavier merit to the negative impacts of experience that we have had. The general public shows this on a daily basis through the media and in person.
It is through the Criminal Justice System’s close collaborations with like-minded agencies such as the Police, Prison and Courts Services, that the public’s concerns and worries are resolved, in order to bring about justice in our communities (Cavadino and Dignan, 2007 as cited in Fox, 2014). With that in mind and out of the way, this essay will aim to explore some of the strengths and weaknesses, which are prominent within the Criminal Justice System. To do this successfully, the Police and the Courts Service will be the key agencies that will be explored in relation to the key Models that shape the whole Criminal Justice System. These Models were founded by Herbert L. Packer (1968) and Michael King (1981).
Looking into criminal justice procedure, many administrations are at work. Starting with the police, to the courts and concluding in corrections. Though all these sectors have different tasks, their combined focus is processing the law. Regardless what the process is called criminal justice will continue to serve with discretion, conviction, and correction. When first presented with the question whether criminal justice is a system, non-system, and network I leaned toward a network. Throughout our discussions, lectures, and readings I felt the process presented itself as a network. Intertwined divisions working for a common goal. Further into my research and help from Webster, I decided that the criminal justice
Scientific management is a management theory developed by Frederick W Taylor. Its main purpose is to improve an organization’s efficiency in production through analyzing workflow systematically using quantitative analysis to improve task completion efficiency. Reducing waste, increasing methods of production and create a just distribution of goods are goals of the scientific management theory. On the other hand, human relations theory attributed by Elton Mayo counteracts with scientific management theory that ignored human issues of behavior. In human relations theory, a worker is treated as an individual and what motivates and cultivates them in their achievement is analyzed. Both scientific management and human relation theory aims to improve efficiency in the workplace and it still applies to the workforce in the modern days despite the opposing ideas of both theories.
