“This is a systemic mind set and is a problem entrenched in police departments,” writes Robert from Weber State University.
The title of the police team is a subtle reminder that police officers, both as portrayed in movies and television dramas as well as in real life, are no nonsense “take names and kick ass” officers. You can bet as a police supervisor, if you have to pick a name for your team, it won’t be Butterflies or Kittens. It has to be something that fits what you are trying to present to your officers and to the general public that fits the mindset and expectations.
Having worked in police departments for more than 35 years, I have experienced and recognized the high value placed on individual police officers to be viewed by their peers as strong, “stand up,” officers who will cover their fellow officers, and who can be counted on during any crisis. Just ask a recruit officer: “Would you like to be assigned to the SWAT team or to the community policing team?” “Would you rather be a school resource officer or assigned to the SWAT team?”
