DESIGNING EFFECTIVE TRANSITIONS FOR NEW CORRECTIONAL LEADERS

Thomas Gilmore and Joseph E. McCann

Review of Policy Research, 1982, vol. 2, issue 2, 253-261

Abstract: Leadership transitions in corrections pose both risks and opportunities. A four phase model of the transition process is presented which identifies key issues of each phase. Two directions for action are recommended. First, a structured support network of correctional leaders across state lines can be strengthened to share experiences and advice. Second, internal strategies are offered that help a new commissioner join with the department both to build effective working relationships and to identify the major challenges to the organization.
