Some Ideas about Management and the Work of the Police Chiefs

Abstract

The realisation that in order to achieve individual and community goals, people need to divide labour and cooperate, all this needs to be coordinated and organised, i.e. managed and controlled, serves as the basis for management activities. Following this insight, gradually and steadily, management became an increasingly conscious human activity, which today has deservedly been elevated to the status of science. Due to its interdisciplinary nature, the management and organisation science of our times combines the knowledge of education science, psychology, sociology, law and historical science both in its theory and its practice.
