Leadership and Change in Winnipeg’s Smart Policing Initiative

Policing: A Journal of Policy and Practice

"This study looks at a Smart Policing Initiative (SPI) implemented by the Winnipeg Police Service. Line officers and management personnel were interviewed to determine how they dealt with the implementation of SPI. We used activity data to determine whether officers actually carried out the activities integral to the SPI programme. The research concludes that there was attitudinal ‘buy-in’ to the programme and that the officers did carry out the proactive policing activities mandated by the programme."
