Module 2 – Case
MANAGEMENT AND ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOR
Case Assignment
Welcome to the second case study for this course. Please
review the background material and study the Wesley (2011) article concerning
the implementation of computerized management systems by the individual states.
These systems provide the various criminal justice organizations state of the
art enforcement and case management tools and access to important data for
carrying out functions within the respective agencies.
In a 4-5 page paper, discuss some of the difficulties
reported by employees related to the implementation of this new system in
relation to changes in job task. What are the major benefits to the management
of a criminal justice related organization having access to such a system?
