What will be an ideal response?
Many police departments use a detailed strategic planning process where goals are identified and programs or tactics are matched to the goals. The strategic plan has a number of advantages. First, it results in leaders identifying priorities or goals. This helps to ensure that the department and individual units remain focused on priorities. Second, it results in tactical planning where the police administrative staff consider various operational tactics and select the most promising ones to apply to specific problems. Third, it results in operational control. Operational control is where supervisors guide subordinates to ensure that their activities
are consistent with tactics or programs to ensure success.
