Dec 2022 Leadership Decision Making Management and Administration
OVERVIEW
Criminology students as potential practitioners, law enforcers and public safety officers are trained to be willing
and knowledgeable enough to turn basic knowledge of leadership, management and administration into their respective
roles. They should be good at applying leadership qualities and trait based leadership strategies. As future leaders,
managers and administrator in their respective fields, they are required to express the values and discipline that
reinforce integrity in leadership and decision-making in the administration of law enforcement, public security and
criminal justice.
When it comes to leadership, competencies determine what a person can do. Commitment determines what
they want to do, and character determines what they will do.
Character is foundational for effective decision-making. Clearly, mistakes are made because of a leader’s
shortcomings in his or her competencies. More often, the root cause is a failing of character. For example, not
recognizing or not willing to admit that you don’t have the requisite competencies to succeed in the leadership role is
rooted in character. Not willing to listen to those who can do well because of the perception that it would undermine
your leadership is a problem rooted in character. Challenging decisions being made by others but which you feel are
wrong requires character. Dealing with discriminatory behaviors by others requires character. Creating a culture of
constructive dissent so that others may challenge your decisions without fear of consequences requires character.
Character
— is a psychological notion that refers to all the habitual ways of feeling and reacting that distinguish one individual
from another. (Sigmund Freud)
— the way someone thinks, feels, and behaves: someone's personality — (Britannica Dictionary)

Respect means that you accept somebody for who they are, even when they're different from you or you
don't agree with them. Respect in your relationships builds feelings of trust, safety, and wellbeing.
Spiritual respect is not earned in the sense of what you know or what you achieve on your life path
journey. It does not come from judgment, expectation, the need for control, the need to be right,
negative emotions like jealousy or worry about what other people think, rationalization, attitudes or
feelings on what you want or think "respect" should be. It is not used for personal gain, ego or power.
f. Humility
Humility is considered a state of being, highlighted by your behavior and approach to things. It's also
considered one of the virtues of the human condition, along with kindness, patience, diligence, charity,
temperance and chastity. Humility is often thought to occur in the absence of pride.
3 signs of a humble person:
1) They don't go around saying they're humble. ...
2) They talk less and listen more. ...
3) They choose being at peace over being right

2. Introducing required changes:
— The business environment is changing at a quick pace, so in order to face the changing environment, many
alterations have to be introduced in the organization. Since the people already happen to be under the
influence of the leader, he can easily makes them agree to implement these changes. In this way, the
possible resistance to the change is eliminated with the strength of leadership ability.
3. Solving conflicts effectively:
— A leader can effectively solve every type of conflict be it employee vs. employee or employees vs. employer,
under the weight of his influence. A leader allows his followers the liberty to express their views. That is the
reason that he easily understands the reality of the conflict, in this way, by understanding the nature of the
conflict he tries to provide timely solution and minimizes the possibility of adverse results.
4. Training and Development of Subordinates:
— A leader helps in the training and development of the employees. He makes them aware of the modern
techniques of work. In addition, he makes it possible for them to be good leaders in future.
5. Setting a clear vision:
— This means Influencing employees to understand and accept the future state of the organization. A good
leader will influence his followers to perform their duties by explaining the vision and the importance of
their role in the outcome.
— Motivating and guiding employees: This involves finding out the needs of the employees and fulfilling them.
It is important to define the employees’ role in the work process and provide them with the tools needed. A
good leader will explain the task and be available to assist them if they run into a problem.
6. Building morale:
— This involves pulling everyone together towards a comment goal. A good leader will let the employees know
how much their work is appreciated. A simple gesture like providing praise for a task well done, or throwing
a party to recognize small achievements, will regenerate their spirits.
— There is a great importance of leadership in organizational development. The role of leaders, throughout an
organization, is critical to the success of organizational development interventions. Creating and maintaining
worthwhile businesses require an understanding of the role of leadership in addressing personal
development of employees. Happiness and contentment is a common goal of everyone and the rest of the
things are possibly means to that goal.
THEORIES OF LEADERSHIP
Autocratic Style
— The phrase most illustrative of an autocratic leadership style is "Do as I say." Generally, an autocratic leader
believes that he or she is the smartest person at the table and knows more than others. They make all the
decisions with little input from team members. This command-and-control approach is typical of leadership
styles of the past, but it doesn't hold much water with today's talent.
— Autocratic leadership is the inverse of democratic leadership. In this leadership style, the leader makes
decisions without taking input from anyone who reports to them. Employees are neither considered nor
consulted prior to a direction, and are expected to adhere to the decision at a time and pace stipulated by
the leader.
5. Pacesetting Style
— "Do as I do!" is the phrase most indicative of leaders who utilize the pacesetting style. This style describes a
very driven leader who sets the pace as in racing. Pacesetters set the bar high and push their team members
to run hard and fast to the finish line.
— While the pacesetter style of leadership is effective in getting things done and driving for results, it's a style
that can hurt team members. For one thing, even the most driven employees may become stressed working
under this style of leadership in the long run.
— An agile leadership style may be the ultimate leadership style required for leading today's talent.
Authoritative Style
— The phrase most indicative of this style of leadership (also known as "visionary") is "Follow me." The
authoritative leadership style is the mark of confident leaders who map the way and set expectations, while
engaging and energizing followers along the way.
— In a climate of uncertainty, these leaders lift the fog for people. They help them see where the company is
going and what's going to happen when they get there.
— Unlike autocratic leaders, authoritative leaders take the time to explain their thinking: They don't just issue
orders. Most of all, they allow people choice and latitude on how to achieve common goals.
Democratic Style
— Democratic leaders are more likely to ask "What do you think?" They share information with employees
about anything that affects their work responsibilities. They also seek employees' opinions before approving
a final decision.
— There are numerous benefits to this participative leadership style. It can engender trust and promote team
spirit and cooperation from employees. It allows for creativity and helps employees grow and develop. A
democratic leadership style gets people to do what you want to be done but in a way that they want to do it.

Insight Review Center LEA (Leadership, Decision-Making, Management and Administration)
— Democratic leadership is exactly what it sounds like -- the leader makes decisions based on the input of each
team member. Although he or she makes the final call, each employee has an equal say on a project's
direction.
Coaching Style
— When you having a coaching leadership style, you tend to have a "Consider this" approach. A leader who
coaches views people as a reservoir of talent to be developed. The leader who uses a coach approach seeks
to unlock people's potential.
— Leaders who use a coaching style open their hearts and doors for people. They believe that everyone has
power within themselves. A coaching leader gives people a little direction to help them tap into their ability
to achieve all that they're capable of.
Affiliative Style
— A phrase often used to describe this type of leadership is "People come first." Of all the leadership styles, the
affiliative leadership approach is one where the leader gets up close and personal with people. A leader
practicing this style pays attention to and supports the emotional needs of team members. The leader strives
to open up a pipeline that connects him or her to the team.
— Ultimately, this style is all about encouraging harmony and forming collaborative relationships within teams.
It's particularly useful, for example, in smoothing conflicts among team members or reassuring people
during times of stress.
Laissez-Faire Style
— The laissez-faire leadership style is at the opposite end of the autocratic style. Of all the leadership styles,
this one involves the least amount of oversight. You could say that the autocratic style leader stands as firm
as a rock on issues, while the laissez-faire leader lets people swim with the current.
— Laissez-faire leadership is the least intrusive form of leadership. The French term "laissez faire" literally
translates to "let them do," and leaders who embrace it afford nearly all authority to their employees.
Strategic Leadership
— Strategic leaders sit at the intersection between a company's main operations and its growth opportunities.
He or she accepts the burden of executive interests while ensuring that current working conditions remain
stable for everyone else.
— This is a desirable leadership style in many companies because strategic thinking supports multiple types of
employees at once. However, leaders who operate this way can set a dangerous precedent with respect to
how many people they can support at once, and what the best direction for the company really is if
everyone is getting their way at all times.
Transformational Leadership
— Transformational leadership is always "transforming" and improving upon the company's conventions.
Employees might have a basic set of tasks and goals that they complete every week or month, but the leader
is constantly pushing them outside of their comfort zone.
— When starting a job with this type of leader, all employees might get a list of goals to reach, as well as
deadlines for reaching them. While the goals might seem simple at first, this manager might pick up the pace
of deadlines or give you more and more challenging goals as you grow with the company.
Transactional Leadership
— Transactional leaders are fairly common today. These managers reward their employees for precisely the
work they do. A marketing team that receives a scheduled bonus for helping generate a certain number of
leads by the end of the quarter is a common example of transactional leadership.
— When starting a job with a transactional boss, you might receive an incentive plan that motivates you to
quickly master your regular job duties. For example, if you work in marketing, you might receive a bonus for
sending 10 marketing emails. On the other hand, a transformational leader might only offer you a bonus if
your work results in a large amount of newsletter subscriptions.
— Transactional leadership helps establish roles and responsibilities for each employee, but it can also
encourage bare-minimum work if employees know how much their effort is worth all the time. This
leadership style can use incentive programs to motivate employees, but they should be consistent with the
company's goals and used in addition to unscheduled gestures of appreciation.

Bureaucratic Leadership
— Bureaucratic leaders go by the books. This style of leadership might listen and consider the input of
employees -- unlike autocratic leadership -- but the leader tends to reject an employee's input if it conflicts
with company policy or past practices.
— You may run into a bureaucratic leader at a larger, older, or traditional company. At these companies, when a
colleague or employee proposes a strong strategy that seems new or non-traditional, bureaucratic leaders
may reject it. Their resistance might be because the company has already been successful with current
processes and trying something new could waste time or resources if it doesn't work.
Authoritarian Leadership
— Authoritarian leadership styles allow a leader to impose expectations and define outcomes. A one-person
show can turn out to be successful in situations when a leader is the most knowledgeable in the team.
Although this is an efficient strategy in time-constrained periods, creativity will be sacrificed since input from
the team is limited. The authoritarian leadership style is also used when team members need clear
guidelines
— Advantages:
a) Time spent on making crucial decisions can be reduced.
b) Chain of command can be clearly emphasized.
c) Mistakes in the implementation of plans can be reduced.
d) Using authoritarian leadership style creates consistent results.
— Disadvantages:
a) A very strict leadership style can sometimes lead to employee rebellion.
b) It kills employee creativity and innovation.
c) It reduces group synergy & collaboration.
d) Group input is reduced dramatically.
e) Authoritarian leadership increases employee turnover rate.
Participative Leadership
— Participative leadership styles are rooted in democratic theory. The essence is to involve team members in
the decision making process. Team members thus feel included, engaged and motivated to contribute. The
leader will normally have the last word in the decision-making processes. However, if there are
disagreements within a group, it can be a time-consuming process to reach a consensus.
— Advantages:
a) It increases employee motivation and job satisfaction.
b) It encourages use of employee creativity.
c) A participative leadership style helps in the creation of a strong team.
d) High level of productivity can be achieved.
— Disadvantages:
a) Decision-making processes become time-consuming.
b) Leaders have a high probability of being apologetic to employees.
c) Communication failures can sometimes happen.
d) Security issues can arise because of transparency in information sharing.
e) Poor decisions can be made if the employees are unskilled.
Delegative leadership
— Also known as "laissez-faire leadership", a delegative leadership style focuses on delegating initiative to team
members. This can be a successful strategy if team members are competent, take responsibility and prefer
engaging in individual work. However, disagreements among the members may split and divide a group,
leading to poor motivation and low morale.
— Advantages:
a) Experienced employees can take advantage of their competence and experience.
b) Innovation & creativity is highly valued.
c) Delegative leadership creates a positive work environment.
— Disadvantages:
a) Command responsibility is not properly defined.
b) Delegative leadership creates difficulty in adapting to change
Transactional leadership
— Transactional leadership styles use "transactions" between a leader and his or her followers - rewards,
punishments and other exchanges - to get the job done. The leader sets clear goals, and team members

Insight Review Center LEA (Leadership, Decision-Making, Management and Administration)
know how they'll be rewarded for their compliance. This "give and take" leadership style is more concerned
with following established routines and procedures in an efficient manner, than with making any
transformational changes to an organization.
Transformational Leadership
— In transformational leadership styles, the leader inspires his or her followers with a vision and then
encourages and empowers them to achieve it. The leader also serves as a role model for the vision.
Principles of Leadership
1) Know yourself and seek self-improvement
In order to know yourself, you have to understand your be, know, and do, attributes. Seeking self-
improvement means continually strengthening your attributes. This can be accomplished through self-study,
formal classes, reflection, and interacting with others.
2) Be technically proficient
As a leader, you must know your job and have a solid familiarity with your employees' tasks.
3) Seek responsibility and take responsibility for your actions
Search for ways to guide your organization to new heights. And when things go wrong, as they often tend to
do sooner or later — do not blame others. Analyze the situation, take corrective action, and move on to the
next challenge.
4) Make sound and timely decisions
Use good problem solving, decision making, and planning tools.
5) Set the example
Be a good role model for your employees. They must not only hear what they are expected to do, but also
see. “
“We must become the change we want to see.” - Mahatma Gandhi
6) Know your people and look out for their well-being
Know human nature and the importance of sincerely caring for your workers.
7) Keep your workers informed
Know how to communicate with not only them, but also seniors and other key people.
8) Develop a sense of responsibility in your workers
Help to develop good character traits that will help them carry out their professional responsibilities.
9) Ensure that tasks are understood, supervised, and accomplished
Communication is the key to this responsibility.
10) Train as a team
Although many so called leaders call their organization, department, section, etc. a team; they are not really
teams... they are just a group of people doing their jobs.
11) Use the full capabilities of your organization
By developing a team spirit, you will be able to employ your organization, department, section, etc. to its
fullest capabilities.
There are 10 must-have attributes that managers (and followers) must possess in order to become highly effective
leaders within their organizations.
1) Active Listening 5) Evolution 9) Integrity
2) Education 6) Resourcefulness 10) People
3) Attention to Detail 7) Service
4) Directions 8) Humor
Listening, Education, Attention to detail, Direction, Evolution, Resourcefulness, Service, Humor, Integrity and People
(LEADERSHIP) are the key ingredients to successful leadership. Of course, no two commanders lead the same way,
but if each of the LEADERSHIP attributes are applied in one’s management style then the basics are covered

Insight Review Center LEA (Leadership, Decision-Making, Management and Administration)
A managerial leader is the least effective of the five types of leaders. They have the least influence. People
only follow them because they have to.
They are not in the position to serve others. Their desire is to be served by others because they are in the
position. They see others as tools to use to complete the objective for the day. They prefer to make
decisions. Their weakness is character development.
Type 2: Relational Leader
A relational leader builds relationships in order to influence others. People want to follow them because of
who they are, not what they know. They develop mutual respect with others and work well with them.
Although people want to follow them, they have not developed specialized knowledge. Their weakness is
not making the necessary sacrifices to develop their competency.
Type 3: Motivational Leader
A motivational leader seeks mutual benefit for themselves, others, and the organization. People want to
follow them because of who they are and what they know. They influence others from the outside.
They are process focused. They are trusted and deliver results for themselves, their families, their team, their
organization, their customers, their suppliers, and their community. Their weakness is not making the
necessary sacrifices to reproduce other motivational leaders.
Type 4: Inspirational Leader
An inspirational leader inspires managerial and relational leaders to become motivational leaders. Their
focus is on growing themselves in order to inspire others to grow. They influence others on the inside.
They are people-focused not process-focused. They focus heavily on character development. True
inspirational leaders are followed because of how much they care and who they are on the inside. They are
inspired by the growth of those following them.
Type 5: Transformational Leader
A transformational leader’s passion and purpose is to transform others. They are the most influential of the
five types of leaders and are highly respected. Their reputation precedes them. They are well known for
developing leaders.
Their influence touches people in all industries and across multiple generations. They have influenced many
leaders for many years. Their influence is continuously being transferred through many other leaders at
many different times in multiple locations.

Until you clearly communicate your vision to your team and tell them the strategy to achieve the goal, it will
be very difficult for you to get the results you want.
Simply put, if you are unable to communicate your message effectively to your team, you can never be a
good leader. A good communicator can be a good leader. Words have the power to motivate people and
make them do the unthinkable. If you use them effectively, you can also achieve better results.
6. Decision-Making Capabilities
Apart from having a futuristic vision, a leader should have the ability to take the right decision at the right
time. Decisions taken by leaders have a profound impact on masses. A leader should think long and hard
before taking a decision but once the decision is taken, stand by it.
Although, most leaders take decisions on their own, but it is highly recommended that you consult key
stakeholders before taking a decision. After all, they are the ones who will benefit or suffer from your
decisions.
7. Accountability
When it comes to accountability, you need to follow the approach highlighted by Arnold H Glasow when he
said, “A good leader takes little more than his share of the blame and little less than his share of the credit.”
8. Delegation and Empowerment
You cannot do everything, right. It is important for a leader to focus on key responsibilities while leaving the
rest to others. It means empowering your followers and delegating tasks to them.
If you continue to micromanage your subordinates, it will develop a lack of trust and more importantly, you
will not be able to focus on important matters, as you should be. Delegate tasks to your subordinates and
see how they perform. Provide them with all the resources and support they need to achieve the objective
and give them a chance to bear the responsibility.
9. Creativity and Innovation
What separates a leader from a follower? Steve Jobs, the greatest visionary of our time answers this
question this way, “Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.”
In order to get ahead in today’s fast-paced world, a leader must be creative and innovative at the same time.
Creative thinking and constant innovation is what makes you and your team stand out from the crowd. Think
out of the box to come up with unique ideas and turn those ideas and goals into reality.
10. Empathy
Leaders should develop empathy with their followers. Unfortunately, most leaders follow a dictatorial style
and neglect empathy altogether. Due to this, they fail to make a closer connection with their followers.
Understanding the problems of your followers and feeling their pain is the first step to become an effective
leader. Even that is not enough until you work hard and provide your followers with the suitable solution to
their problems.
11. Resilience
When the going gets tough, the tough gets going. You might have heard this adage many times, but did you
know that great leaders also follow this rule. They are resilient and have a positive attitude. Irrespective of
how difficult the circumstances might be, you will find them rallying their followers.
While most people are busy in complaining about the problems, great leaders always focus on solutions, not
the problems.
12. Emotional Intelligence
Good leaders always have higher influence but how do they increase their influence on the point where
people accept what they say. They do this by connecting with people emotionally. That is where emotional
intelligence comes into play.
Here are some of the reasons why a leader should be emotionally intelligent.
a) Manage emotions effectively
b) Better social awareness
c) Seamless communications
d) Conflict Resolution
e) With emotional intelligence, leaders can control their emotions, which prevents negative emotions
from influencing their decision-making skills. As a result, they are less likely to make hasty decisions.
13. Humility
“Pride makes us artificial and humility makes us real.”—Thomas Merton
How would you feel when you are promoted to leadership status? You will feel proud. A good leader is
always selfless and always think about his or her followers.
That is why the leadership styles most great leaders adopt put lots of emphasis on problem-solving and team
dynamics instead of focusing on self-promotion.
14. Transparency
One of the best ways to win the trust of your followers is by being transparent. Instead of hiding information,
you should openly share it with them.
11
Insight Review Center LEA (Leadership, Decision-Making, Management and Administration)
By giving visibility to your followers, they will buy into your vision and support you with conviction in
achieving the goal. More importantly, it gives your followers clarity, autonomy and make them feel more
empowered while keeping them engaged.
15. Vision and Purpose
“Good business leaders create a vision, articulate the vision, passionately own the vision, and relentlessly
drive it to completion.”—Jack Welch
What is Administration?
— The administration is a systematic process of administering the management of a business organization, an
educational institution like school or college, government office or any non-profit organization. The main
function of administration is the formation of plans, policies, and procedures, setting up of goals and objectives,
enforcing rules and regulations, etc.

incorporate both leadership and vision

that administration involves setting and following instructions and service which relates to setting up objectives
and crucial policies of every organization. The administration is focused on the planning and organizing of
functions as well as administrative qualities.
UNDERSTANDING MANAGEMENT
OVERVIEW
Manager is important in every organization. The success of a department depends how a manager efficient
towards his / her works who will equipped with skill and knowledge to run over the organization. The style of leadership
may apply and acceptable to a group of people where did he belong.
Entrusted with a leadership role, a manager is responsible for overseeing a department or group of employees
within a specific organisation or company. In a business for example, managers contribute to businesses in significant
ways, which are reflected in company profits, organisation, and overall workplace morale.
MANAGEMENT
— Management in other hand is a set of principles relating to the roles planning, coordinating, directing, and
regulating, and implementation of those principles in the efficient and effective use of physical, financial and
informational capital to achieve organizational objectives.

12
Insight Review Center LEA (Leadership, Decision-Making, Management and Administration)
often includes interrelated processes by which management within an entity manages and controls the
organization's resources to achieve desired outcomes. This requires not only managing and using financial
resources alone, but also human resources, as they are also important to an organization in order to achieve its
stated objectives.
Managers need to build a comfortable working atmosphere that promotes healthy employee relations within the
company. They will make sure that the human resources work Having in harmony full oversight of an
organization affairs, managers need to due process to set goals and come up with plans for achieving outcomes.
Both phases of planning and execution include due processes which the manager must strictly adhere.
Management as a Discipline
Management is also a discipline because it includes learning the procedures and values required to perform
official administrative duties, as well as demonstrating the code of conduct that managers must obey when
performing their duties. Management is also being taught, as with other research or discipline courses, at
numerous institutes and universities around the world.
Management as an Art
Management is also known to be an art, because both share similar characteristics. Art is a structured body of
knowledge that requires imagination and expertise. An artist often needs constant of practice perfection which
is considered acceptable.
Management as a Group
In any way, the concept of management suggests that it is a group. In general, administrative functions are not
performed by one person alone. For most cases, as companies expand, many specific managerial roles are
generated so that the organization can meet its desired objectives.
Management as an operation carried out by a group of people saddled with the responsibility of keeping the
company going and achieving a specific goal. In other words, a community composed of people with specific
knowledge of the organization or managerial roles will work together to manage a business.
Management as a Profession
Management is also an occupation as it characteristics that allow it to be so. A profession is called a career in
which one acquires knowledge and undergoes training series to fit perfectly into that role.
A career has limited entry which is also true in management. Although anyone can assume managerial role in a
corporation and there is no law prohibiting that, many companies now prefer for such positions individuals with
Master's degree.
MANAGERIAL FUNCTIONS
MANAGERIAL SKILLS

knowledge and skills to do the job because it will be the foundations for his workers to be corrected and driven.
Since the manager makes decisions for each type of activity and his decisions affect an organization's work, he should
have the following attributes to do his job properly:
1. Educational competence
A manager has to have adequate and outstanding preparation. Besides other educational qualifications they
are required to have management education and training. Education not only widens the intellectual scope
of executives but also helps to understand and interpret things properly. Business environment awareness is
also essential to tackle the various problems that the company can encounter.
2. Intellectual quality
Managers should have a higher level of intelligence relative to others, because they have more roles in the
organization than other men. Intelligence can assist a manager in evaluating the organization's present and
future organizational possibilities. He must be able to predict the things in advance and take the necessary
decisions in due course.

6. Technical knowledge and skills
Manager should have technical knowledge of the organization's job and other tasks. He will be better placed
to assess and direct if he has knowledge of those things himself.
7. Mental Maturity
To deal with different circumstances a manager should have mental maturity. He is supposed to be polite,
good listener and quick to respond to situations. He has to take several uncomfortable decisions that could
have an adverse effect on the job if not taken properly. When dealing with subordinates he will remain calm.
All of these attributes come with maturity of mind.
8. Positive Attitude
Positive attitude is to a manager's asset. A manager has to deal with a lot of people from both inside and
outside the company. He should be sensitive and optimistic to different suggestions and make rational
choices. He should not prejudge issues, and should not take sides. He will try and develop good relationships
with different people dealing with him. He would consider their issues and attempt to reach out a helping
hand.
9. Self-confidence
Every manager should have faith in himself.
He has to take a lot of decisions every day; he should thoroughly evaluate things before making decisions. If
he makes decisions, then he should stick to them and try to put them into practice. A manager lacking
confidence in himself will always be uncertain about his decisions. This kind of mentality creates more
problems than just solving them.
10. Foresight
A manager has to make a decision not just for the present but also for the future. The technology, marketing,
consumer behavior, financial set-up etc. are rapidly changing. The economic policy shifts would repercussion
in the future. A manager should foresee what will happen in the future and plan the organization for the
circumstances to face. The level of foresight will help you make the right choices and face the challenges to
come in the right perspective. If the problems aren't properly evaluated, then the organization can face
adverse situations.
Top-Level Managers
— As you would expect, top-level managers (or top managers) are the “bosses” of the organization. They have titles
such as chief executive officer (CEO), chief operations officer (COO), chief marketing officer (CMO), chief
technology officer (CTO), and chief financial officer (CFO). A new executive position known as the chief
compliance officer (CCO) is showing up on many organizational charts in response to the demands of the
government to comply with complex rules and regulations.
Middle Managers
— Middle managers have titles like department head, director, and chief supervisor. They are links between the top
managers and the first-line managers and have one or two levels below them. Middle managers receive broad
strategic plans from top managers and turn them into operational blueprints with specific objectives and
programs for first-line managers. They also encourage, support, and foster talented employees within the
organization.
First-Line Managers
— First-line managers are the entry level of management, the individuals “on the line” and in the closest contact
with the workers. They are directly responsible for making sure that organizational objectives and plans are
implemented effectively. They may be called assistant managers, shift managers, foremen, section chiefs, or
office managers.
— First-line managers are focused almost exclusively on the internal issues of the organization and are the first to
see problems with the operation of the business, such as untrained labor, poor quality materials, machinery
breakdowns, or new procedures that slow down production. It is essential that they communicate regularly with
middle management.
Team Leaders
14
Insight Review Center LEA (Leadership, Decision-Making, Management and Administration)
— A team leader is a special kind of manager who may be appointed to manage a particular task or activity. The
team leader reports to a first-line or middle manager. Responsibilities of the team leader include developing
timelines, making specific work assignments, providing needed training to team members, communicating clear
instructions, and generally ensuring that the team is operating at peak efficiency.
Management Roles:
Informational Roles
— Informational roles involve the receiving and sending of information—whether as a spokesperson, a mentor, a
trainer, or an administrator. A top manager is a voice of the organization and has to be aware that even personal
opinions will reflect (for better or worse) on the business.

consistency, firmness and conviction. A manager who constantly changes his decisions will leave his subordinates
in doubt. The subordinates will be directed by a decision-making capacity and the ability to take correct decisions
at the appropriate time.
PRINCIPLES OF MANAGEMENT
16
Insight Review Center LEA (Leadership, Decision-Making, Management and Administration)
Henry Fayol also is known as ‘father of modern management theory’ gave a new perception of the concept of
management. He introduced a general theory that can be applied to all levels of management and every
department.
The Fayol theory is practiced by the managers to organize and regulate the internal activities of an organization.
He concentrated on accomplishing managerial efficiency.
The fourteen principles of management created by Henri Fayol are explained below.
1. Division of Work
• Henry believed that segregating work in the workforce amongst the worker will enhance the quality of the
product. Similarly, he also concluded that the division of work improves the productivity, efficiency, accuracy, and
speed of the workers. This principle is appropriate for both the managerial as well as a technical work level.
• This principle of management is based on the theory that if workers are given a specialized task to do, they will
become skilful and more efficient in it than if they had a broader range of tasks. Therefore, a process where
everyone has a specialized role will be an efficient one.
• According to this principle the whole work is divided into small tasks. The specialization of the workforce
according to the skills of a person, creating specific personal and professional development within the labor force
and therefore increasing productivity; leads to specialization which increases the efficiency of labor.
3. Discipline-
• Without discipline, nothing can be accomplished. It is the core value for any project or any management. Good
performance and sensible interrelation make the management job easy and comprehensive. Employee’s good
behavior also helps them smoothly build and progress in their professional careers.
4. Unity of Command-
• This means an employee should have only one boss and follow his command. If an employee has to follow more
than one boss, there begins a conflict of interest and can create confusion.
• There should be a clear chain of command in place within an organization. An employee should know exactly
whose instructions to follow.
• This principle states that each subordinate should receive orders and be accountable to one and only one
superior. If an employee receives orders from more than one superior, it is likely to create confusion and conflict
5. Unity of Direction-
• Whoever is engaged in the same activity should have a unified goal. This means all the person working in a
company should have one goal and motive which will make the work easier and achieve the set goal easily.
• Work should be organized in a way that means employees are working in harmony toward a shared objective or
goal using a shared method or procedure.
• All related activities should be put under one group, there should be one plan of action for them, and they
should be under the control of one manager.
7. Remuneration
17
Insight Review Center LEA (Leadership, Decision-Making, Management and Administration)
• This plays an important role in motivating the workers of a company. Remuneration can be monetary or non-
monetary, however, it should be according to an individual’s efforts they have made.
• In order to motivate and be fair to employees, they should be paid a reasonable rate for the work they carry out.
An organization that underpays will struggle to attract quality workers who are motivated.
• Workers must be paid sufficiently as this is a chief motivation of employees and therefore greatly influences
productivity. The quantum and methods of remuneration payable should be fair, reasonable and rewarding of
effort.
8. Centralization-
• In any company, the management or any authority responsible for the decision- making process should be
neutral. However, this depends on the size of an organization. Henri Fayol stressed on the point that there should
be a balance between the hierarchy and division of power.
• This principle relates to whether decisions should be made centrally, as in from the top down, or in a more
democratic way, from the bottom up. Different decision-making processes are appropriate for different types of
decisions.
• The amount of power wielded with the central management depends on company size. Centralization implies
the concentration of decision-making authority at the top management.
9. Scalar Chain
• Fayol one the principles highlight that the hierarchy steps should be from top to the lowest. This is necessary so
that every employee knows their immediate senior also they should be able to contact any if needed.
• This relates to the principle of a clear chain of communication existing between employees and superiors. The
chain should be respected, unless speedy communication is vital, in which case the chain may be bypassed if all
parties consent.
• This refers to the chain of superiors ranging from top management to the lowest rank. The principle suggests
that there should be a clear line of authority from top to bottom linking all managers at all levels.
10. Order
• A company should maintain a well-defined work order to have a favorable work culture. The positive atmosphere
in the workplace will boost more positive productivity.
• This relates to the proper use of resources and their effective deployment in a structured fashion.
• Social order ensures the fluid operation of a company through authoritative procedure. Material order ensures
safety and efficiency in the workplace. Order should be acceptable and under the rules of the company.
11. Equity
• All the employees should be treated equally and respectfully. It’s the responsibility of a manager that no
employees face discrimination.
• Managers should behave ethically towards those they manage. Almost every organization in the modern world
will have a written set of policies and procedures which will outline exactly what is expected from staff at all
levels.
• Employees must be treated kindly, and justice must be enacted to ensure a just workplace. Managers should be
fair and impartial when dealing with employees, giving equal attention towards all employees.
13. Initiative-
• The management should support and encourage the employees to take initiatives in an organization. It will help
them to increase their interest and make then worth.
• Employees that have an input as to how to best do their job are likely to feel more motivated and respected.
Many organizations place a great deal of emphasis on listening to the concerns of staff.
• Using the initiative of employees can add strength and new ideas to an organization. Initiative on the part of
employees is a source of strength for organization because it provides new and better ideas. Employees are likely
to take greater interest in the functioning of the organization.
18
Insight Review Center LEA (Leadership, Decision-Making, Management and Administration)
14. Esprit de Corps / Morale
• It is the responsibility of the management to regularly motivate their employees and be supportive of each other.
Developing trust and mutual understanding will lead to a positive outcome and work environment.
• Keeping a high level of morale and team spirit is an essential part of having the most productive organization
possible. Happy and motivated employees are far more likely to be productive and less absent.
• This refers to the need of managers to ensure and develop morale in the workplace; individually and
communally. Team spirit helps develop an atmosphere of mutual trust and understanding. Team spirit helps to
finish the task on time.
These 14 principles of management are used to manage an organization and are beneficial for prediction,
planning, decision-making, organization and process management, control, and coordination.
Unity of direction: This principle asserts that there should be only one manager per department who is in charge of
coordinating the group activity to attain a single goal.
Discipline: According to this principle, employees should be respectful and obedient, and an organization should
outline rules and regulations that clarify rules, good supervision and a reward-punishment system.
19
Insight Review Center LEA (Leadership, Decision-Making, Management and Administration)
Division of work: This principle asserts that the overall action of management should be divided and that team
members should be given responsibilities based on their skills and interests to make them more effective and
efficient.
Authority and responsibility: According to this principle, there should be a balance between authority—the right to
give commands and make decisions—and responsibility—the obligation of an employee to perform the tasks they’re
designated.
7. Theory X and Y
• American social psychologist Douglas McGregor introduced X and Y theories in his book, “The Human Side of
Enterprise,” where he concluded that two different styles of management are guided by their perceptions of
team member motivations. Managers who assume employees are apathetic or dislike their work use theory X,
which is authoritarian.
• Theory Y is used by managers who believe employees are responsible, committed and self-motivated. This is a
participative management style that gives rise to a more collaborative work environment, whereas theory X
leads to micromanaging.
• He concluded that large organizations may rely on theory X to keep everyone focused on meeting organizational
goals. Smaller businesses, where employees are part of the decision-making process and where creativity is
encouraged, tend to use theory Y.
Administration relates to managing of different things. The word "administration" comes from word "minor" and
"ministrare" which means “to serve" and” to govern" accordingly. It is a top-level activity, above the management. It
deals with executive and strategic work. Thus, it must incorporate both leadership and vision
Administrating means directing, superintending the execution, using or conducting of various things. It means,
that administration involves setting and following instructions and service. Which relates to setting up objectives and
crucial policies of every organization.
20
Insight Review Center LEA (Leadership, Decision-Making, Management and Administration)
The administration is focused on the planning and organizing of functions as well as administrative qualities. So,
in summary, both administration and management are key managerial activities in the company. Administration sets up
plans and strategy which are executed in the management process. Administration is a decision- making function, while
management is an executive function. Management is focused on "doing" because managers get work done under their
supervision, while the administration is focused on "thinking" because it is determining the plans and policies.
Management involves the achievement of results for which the responsibility pays the manager. Management
also includes involving organization to achieving objectives with maximum efficiency and responsibility for the result.
Management is the act or function of putting into practice the policies and plans decided upon by the
administration.
Management is inferior to administration, and is focused on motivating and controlling functions as well as
technical abilities and human resources abilities. It deals with employees.
Administrative management
— The term “administrative management” refers to the act of running and maintaining a business or organization.
— The core objective of administrative management is to create a formal structure that facilitates success for a
particular business or organization. Administrative management employees create a hierarchy of authority,
decide on their key functions, assign the different areas of responsibilities and divide labor across the company’s
departments.
1. Technical skills
— Today’s business environment is dominated by technology. A successful administrator needs to understand and
be proficient in the relevant technologies for their specific segment. This means that the administrator must
understand that technology and know how to use and apply it within their particular discipline.
2. Human skills
— Technical skill is related to working with things or applications, but human skill is related to working with people.
This skill encompasses how an administrator interacts with their subordinates, equals, and superiors. A good
administrator should have the skills to understand the people they work with, be receptive to their point of
views and perceptions, understand their expectations and identify their strengths and areas of weakness.
— Human skills also include the ability to communicate well and to understand and be sensitive to the needs and
feelings of the people you work with or manage.
3. Conceptual skills
— This is the ability to see an organization and know how each part works and how it relates to other functions.
This helps the administrator monitor proper coordination because in most cases, the proper running of one
process depends on other processes.
22
Insight Review Center LEA (Leadership, Decision-Making, Management and Administration)
— This is critical for the smooth operation of any organization. A successful administrative manager must have a
strategy in place to administer a budget, manage risk and report any variances.
— A sub-strategy of budget control would also include the implementation of cost improvement strategies such as
automation, waste elimination and monitoring productivity.
2. Change control and management
— It is always a challenge to manage change, not just at the team level but at a functional level. There needs to be
an administrative strategy in place to manage the process of change, to evaluate that change, budget for it,
implement it and ensure it is accepted throughout the different departments of an organization.
3. Delegation
— This is a basic necessity for the administrative side of any business operation. If you want your business to run
smoothly, assign responsibilities within the team. You also have to specify the levels of authority so that tasks are
completed on time by those who are best qualified to do so.
4. Goal setting
— This is a company-wide strategy but one that requires input from the entire administration. There has to be a
strategy that outlines a clear action plan for the employees and states specific targets.
— Most organizations follow the SMART methodology for setting goals: specific, measurable, achievable, relevant
and time-bound.
5. Leadership development
— Effective administrative management includes a strategy to promote leaders from within, and this will require
developing the abilities of existing team members and honing their skills.
— Leadership development is closely associated with succession planning, and both are very important for any
organization.
6. Performance management
— Performance reviews play an important role in any organization. A good administrative management strategy
would entail measures that provide feedback and direction to team members so that everyone knows of their
value and is aligned towards achieving the same targets.
7. Problem management
— Every business, big or small, faces challenges and setbacks. Administrative management often takes
responsibility for identifying those problems, investigating the cause of the problems and proposing solutions to
fix not just the problem itself, but the consequences it created.
8. Setting standards
— An organization typically functions on the principle of providing value to its stakeholders. To do so, there must be
a set of standards in place to ensure that the organization’s products and/or services are up to the mark and
meet acceptable standards. Enforcing these standards should be one of the highest priorities of a company.
9. Team building
— If you want to succeed, you will do so by using your people. To do that, implement team building strategies so
that your team remains motivated.
— Team-building activities are also important for developing team relationships and company loyalty.
10. Transparency
— One role of administrative management is to provide accurate information to the employees and the public. All
reports should be candid, and there should be no practices in place that would require hiding anything from the
core team members or from your clients.
23
Insight Review Center LEA (Leadership, Decision-Making, Management and Administration)
— A good strategy always supports the primary goals of an organization. Administrative management is critical in
creating efficient processes and their implementation. The purpose of every project, policy and action within a
company should be to reach an established goal.
4. Maximum employee and customer satisfaction
— Efficient management will lead to a proper distribution of work and increased motivation among employees.
When employees are motivated, their performance will be better, which will lead to happy clients and increased
customer satisfaction.
5. Data-based decisions
— An effective administrative management strategy will never be based on a whim or assumption. it will be
designed based on data related to the business processes. Any decisions that are made should be based on past
and current information and future goals.
1. Plan strategically
— For effective administrative management, it is imperative that the administrative management team knows the
strategic objectives of the organization. When this happens, processes and functions that are implemented
within the organization will directly affect the achievement of those goals.
2. Focus on all processes
— A good administrative management strategy will ensure that each process is designed for maximum output.
Issues and problems related to business processes should be identified early and addressed quickly to avoid
losses or delays.
3. Evaluate company performance
— Administration is a day-to-day function. Effective administrative management will require regular evaluation of
an organization’s performance.
— This can be done through biweekly, weekly, monthly or quarterly meetings, depending on the type of industry
you work in and the competition. Monitoring a company’s performance, its progress and its key functions is
imperative to the success of administrative management and the organization itself.
4. Prioritize communication
— Many companies fail because of ineffective communication because it has the potential to destroy the
functioning of a business, the motivation level of its employees and the satisfaction rate of its customers.
— A lack of communication can also lead to wrong and uninformed decisions which can often turn out to be
disastrous for a business. If you want to succeed in administrative management, you will need to communicate
well with your employees, your supervisors and your customers.
Administrative management is the key to ensure the smooth operation of a business, and that is why administrative
managers are required to have a broad understanding of all stages of the management process. There is no one strategy
that makes administrative management complete. Effective administrative management requires the implementation of
multiple strategies that are based on the individual organization’s mission, vision and goals.
Decision Making
CHARACTERISTICS OF A GOOD DECISION
1) Decisions are replicable.
2) Decisions foster opportunity. (Empowers others to act
3) Decisions includes others.
4) Decisions are executable.
5) Decision are accountable
6) Decision is systematic.
7) Decisions are pragmatic
8) Decisions involve self-awareness.

— Also known as "Collaborative Decision-Making", a situation faced when individuals collectively make choice from
the alternatives before them. The decision i then no longer attributable to any single individual who is a member
of the group. This is because the result applies to certain systems of individuals and social classes such as social
power. Community decisions often vary from those taken by individuals.
— Collaborative decision taking in workplace environments is one of the most effective models for creating buy-in
from other stakeholders, building trust and promoting innovation. In keeping with the concept of cooperation,
collective decisions often appear to be more successful than decisions made by a single person. In this way, such
collective agreements have the ability to deliver better net output results than individuals working alone (Larson,
2010).
INDIVIDUAL DECISION-MAKING
— In general, an person takes prompt decisions. When in a group, keeping any one person responsible for a wrong
decision is not easy. Human decision taking usually saves time, resources, and energy as individuals make timely
and rational choices. Although taking group decision takes a lot of time, money and energy

DECISION MAKING MODELS IN CRIMINAL JUSTICE
For criminal justice, decision-making requires more than studying the rules and applying them to individual
cases. Decision are based on discretion, that is the exercise of human judgment in order to make decisions about
alternative courses of action.
Professionals in criminal justice have little time to make important decisions which maybe the difference
between life and death. While there is no decision-making process that is fool proof, training, conditioning, and
practice among criminal justice leadership can help these professionals react more rationally and strategically in
the heat of the moment.
1. DIRECTIVE DECISION-MAKING
— Usually a Policy decision-maker sorts out the pros and cons of a situation based on what they already know.
Decision-makers in the directive are very rational and have little tolerance of uncertainty. situation in for their
uncertainty. Instead of going to others for more details, their decisions are rooted in their own intelligence,
experience and reasoning. The upside to this style is that decision making is fast, ownership is transparent, and
no extra communication is needed. Often, however, directive decision-making can be taken impulsively, without
all the necessary details.
2. ANALYTIC DECISION-MAKING
— Before taking action, strategic decision-makers analyze a lot of details. Analytic leaders, for example, rely on
direct observation, data, and facts to back their decisions. Like decision-makers in the guideline, however, an
analytic decision maker may seek information and advice from others to affirm or refute their own expertise.
These decision-makers have a high degree of uncertainty tolerance and are extremely adaptable but they prefer
to monitor certain aspects of the decision process. This style is a well-rounded decision –making strategy that
can be time consuming
26
Insight Review Center LEA (Leadership, Decision-Making, Management and Administration)
o Unlike decision making directives, before agreeing on a course of action, leaders must evaluate all the
details they have available. Assembling a team of expert to assist with analytical designs is
advantageous; leaders must therefore freely consider contradictory advice and ideas. At the same time,
to make the most of the analytic decision making process, leaders need to consider non expert
perspectives.
• Signs you need to use a different approach
o Decisions paralysis is the most important warning sign of overuse of the logical decision form when you
find yourself living in a state of over analysis or overthinking without taking action or making a decision,
this strategy must be removed.
3. CONCEPTUAL DECISION-MAKING
— Compared with the guideline or empirical approaches, the relational decision-making process takes a more
collaborative approach. Conceptual decision makers promote innovative thinking and teamwork and take a wide
variety of viewpoints into consideration. These decision-makers are based on success and want to look well
into the future when it comes to making critical decisions.
• When to use Conceptual Decision-Making
• A leader's role in Conceptual Decision-Making
4. BEHAVIORAL DECISION-MAKING
— Behavioral decision-seek to make sure that everyone method, behavioral is working decision-is together well.
group-oriented; Like the conceptual however, the community is given the choices available to them, rather than
brainstorming alternative solutions. From there the community will discuss each choice's pros and cons. This
decision-making method takes into account several different viewpoints and views in the process
• When to use behavioral decision-making
The behavioral style requires proactive communication, as with conceptual decision-making. This
style takes a more introspective approach by discussing solutions that have worked in the past,
rather than attempting to disclose new patterns.
