JUS 450 Northern Arizona University Leadership Training Manual for the MCO Program

I’m working on a criminal justice project and need support to help me learn.

Assume you are hired as a consultant to develop a leadership training program for the Scottsdale AZ Police Department OR the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office (the agency that oversees corrections in Maricopa County). For this assignment, you need to write a leadership training manual for one of these organizations. You can use any format you like, however, you must use a proper tone (you cannot use “I”), use proper punctuation, spelling, grammar, no long quotes, etc. This is still a technical writing assignment so you will be graded on your ability to write properly. You must cite your sources according to APA and include a reference page.

Attached is an example of a manual.

Assignment Criteria:

1. Between 3-5 pages (not including the title page and reference page)–THIS IS NOT A FORMAL PAPER–WRITE A TRAINING MANUAL

2. Min of 3 reputable or scholarly sources: any other reputable or credible source

3. Use SUBHEADINGS to address the topics below (you will lose 10% if subheadings are not used in your training plan)

4. Topics to address (ALL OF THE FOLLOWING TOPICS ARE TO BE INCLUDED):

• Organizational Structure: How does the organizational structure impact leadership? How should span of control be determined?
