The Problem

The Crime & Intelligence Analyst (CIA) position is typically an employee

position within hierarchically structured organization (eg. RCMP).

According to Alex Tyakoff, former Program Co-Ordinator for the BCIT CIA

Program, Crime and Intelligence Analysts are choosing to terminate their

employment after about seven years on the job.

This project seeks to identify the variables which are driving the

dissatisfaction and those which could drive a solution for improvements in law enforcement workplaces.

Why This Project Matters to the Public

This project is dedicated to the Vancouver BC Downtown East Side Missing Women

who were victims of Robert Pickton, serial killer.

Bullying in the workplace, experienced by geographic profiler and VPD Inspector Kim Rossmo, stalled the investigation when Rossmo first identified the probability of a serial killer on the downtown east side.

The root cause of the bullying was that Dr. Rossmo had been appointed Inspector due to his advanced education, as opposed to earning the rank by years of service and promotion. This caused dissention in the hierarchy, and an informal Order given by a high ranking supervisor to boycott the investigation. The result was a frustration of Dr. Rossmo’s policing efficiencies.

Absent the bullying behaviour of Dr. Rossmo’s supervisor, it is entirely possible that the serial killer would have been

apprehended earlier, and the lives of many victims spared.

Why this Project Matters to AgenciesAgency Loses Support Staff – Labour Shortage

Attrition of support staff employees is currently a problem for Chiefs of

Police in the United States. During a personal interview with Jan Whyte

in May, 2015, a Deputy Chief of Police from Kentucky cited the

following factors:

Suitable analyst candidates are seeking employment in industries

other than public law enforcement;

Global conditions are demanding more analysts in public law

enforcement;

Therefore there is a looming labour shortage for public agencies.

Workplace Bullying: The Role of Psychosocial Work Environment Factors (Tuckey, Dollard, Hosking, & Winefield, 2009)

Identifies leading causes of workplace dissatisfaction in hierarchical environments such as policing

a prevalent variable in law enforcement dissatisfaction is alpha, dominant also known as bullying behaviour

suggests risk assessment of the work environment as an avenue for bullying prevention

concludes that from the analysis of psychosocial factors such as power and rank, bullying behaviour was significantly more likely to be perpetrated by an officer who was ranked above the target than by an officer at same or lower rank

10

Page 11: Coaching for Change_Behaviour Analytics for Law Enforcement Agencies FINAL

Definition of Bullying (Tuckey Article):

Workplace bullying can be defined as behaviors—occurring repeatedly and regularly over a period of time—that harass, offend, socially exclude, or adversely affect the work of an employee

11

Page 12: Coaching for Change_Behaviour Analytics for Law Enforcement Agencies FINAL

Definition of Bullying (WorkSafe BC) – Workplace injury financial compensation in British Columbia:

Includes any inappropriate conduct or comment by a person towards a worker that the person knew or reasonably out to have known would cause that worker to be humiliated or intimidated

Excludes any reasonable action taken by an employer or supervisor relating to the management and direction of workers in the place of employment

12

Page 13: Coaching for Change_Behaviour Analytics for Law Enforcement Agencies FINAL

Definition of Bullying (RCMP Website):

Bullying happens when there is an imbalance of power; where someone purposely and repeatedly says or does hurtful things to someone else. Bullying can occur one on one or in a group(s) of people …

Physical bullying(using your body or objects to cause harm): includes hitting, punching, kicking, spitting or breaking someone else's belongings

Verbal bullying (using words to hurt someone): includes name calling, put-downs, threats and teasing

Social bullying (using your friends and relationships to hurt someone): includes spreading rumours, gossiping, excluding others from a group or making others look foolish or unintelligent. This form of bullying is most common among girls

Problem-solving Approaches to Police Station Conflict (Corcoran, 2014):

historic information on traditional solutions to negative forces in Federal, Municipal and Provincial police sectors

resolution of conflicts in these environments “demand a careful look at the interpretive relationships between opposition parties”

a police supervisor needs to help conflicting opponents to query much of what they suppose they know about the other, in order to learn what really motivates them and why

14

Page 15: Coaching for Change_Behaviour Analytics for Law Enforcement Agencies FINAL

15Spiral Dynamics Theory: The Designer’s Role in Facilitating Sustainable Solutions(Wahl & Baxter, 2008):

measurement tool for organizational and individual behaviours

the world population falls into 8 distinct qualitative categories – values/modes of thought, sometimes described as “intelligence levels”

modes of thought are based on clusters of values that have emerged in humans, and represents a continuum which, when applied to observed behaviours, provides information as to what internal and external factors may trigger, stall or influence changes in human behaviour

Page 16: Coaching for Change_Behaviour Analytics for Law Enforcement Agencies FINAL

Hypothesis #1

• Workplace dissatisfaction for non-rank or lower rank personnel is significant in law enforcement workplaces.

Hypothesis #2

• Bullying is contributing to CIA dissatisfaction in law enforcement workplaces.

Hypothesis #3

• CIA and Employer attitudes toward change significantly influence workplace satisfaction in law enforcement environments.

16

Page 17: Coaching for Change_Behaviour Analytics for Law Enforcement Agencies FINAL

Survey Methodology

Spiral Dynamics Theory, referred to in the Wahl & Baxter paper in the

literature review section, has been used since 1986 to explain and predict

patterns of human behavior.

Spiral Dynamics Theory’s empirical research has revealed a continuum of 8

bio-psycho-social core values in humans worldwide.

Conclusions

Page 31: Coaching for Change_Behaviour Analytics for Law Enforcement Agencies FINAL

Conclusions

Hierarchical private structure produced the same results as hierarchial public

structure.

In this environment, the hypotheses were proven:

workplace dissatisfaction from bullying caused attrition of Crime and Intelligence Analysts

there was a significance to attitude toward change – the positive or negative attitude

produced differing results for the CIA and Agency efficiencies,

both cases produced inefficiencies for the public stakeholder

31

Page 32: Coaching for Change_Behaviour Analytics for Law Enforcement Agencies FINAL

ConclusionsFlexible structure produced different results than the hierarchical structures.

In this environment, a healthier attitude toward change was prevalent (flex).

Higher executive intelligences were significant although human bond value was

absent.

No bullying by superiors reported.

Therefore flexibility values are a significant factor in workplace satisfaction.

32

Page 33: Coaching for Change_Behaviour Analytics for Law Enforcement Agencies FINAL

Conclusions

The independent variable which predicted a successful management by the

analyst of their workplace dissatisfaction was a positive attitude toward change.

According to our survey, healthy attitudes toward change are traceable in

traditional private law enforcement environments but are not prevalent

unless the agency is private new – and close to the flexible level.

Inferences…

Both Leadership and the organizational power structure influence the position of the

organization along the Spiral Dynamics continuum.

Support Staff values/intelligences also influence the position of the organization along the Spiral Dynamics continuum.

The farther along the spiral the individual and the agency, the more efficient the

agency is in fighting crime (aka increased public safety).

Review: the Spiral Dynamics Theory values represent growth or maturity of the

individual or organization’s values, from the far left of the spectrum to the far

right.

Each new intelligence level includes those of the prior levels.

Our survey cited inefficiencies at the “Empire”, “Democracy” and “Capitalism”

levels of traditional law enforcement agencies.

Page 41: Coaching for Change_Behaviour Analytics for Law Enforcement Agencies FINAL

Step 2: Analyze ProblemIdentify Significant Variables - What are Predictors of Success for CIA

Workplace Environment?

The spiral variable which predicts a solution to bullying is human bond. This value is necessary in order to change the inefficiencies in law enforcement environment – encouraging the organization to move toward maximum efficiency.

The independent variables which predicted a successful management by the analyst of their workplace dissatisfaction were a positive attitude toward change and a flexible values base.

The acquisition of human bond will require a change in the culture of traditional law enforcement agencies. A plan to implement human bond will pave the way for a more flexible and satisfying workplace.

Step 4: Cross-Check DesignConsulting another source - according to Harvard leadership specialist Michael

MacCoby, transformations occur when there is a shift from mode of production

to mode of knowledge.

This is consistent with our solution plan – take hierarchy (bureaucratic), put in a

new breed of support employee (personal care/human bond) and arrive at a

learning organization at the flexible intelligence level (interactive leadership).

element are:

Egalitarianism (from French égal, meaning

"equal")—or, rarely, equalitarianism or

equalism—is a trend of thought that favors

equality for all people. Egalitarian doctrines

Step 6: Deliverables Check

Will this Solution Work for Employer Agencies?

For the Employer, if egalitarian values are developed in policing workplaces, the gap in human compassion is bridged, resulting in a counteraction of bullying

behaviours.

Less bullying results in higher productivity and the trend is toward retention of Crime & Intelligence Analysts past year 6 at increasing efficiency.

Step 8: Communicate Urgency

Our survey results are is consistent with the information provided by the Deputy

Chief of Police from Kentucky – we have proven:

1. Lower ranks are dissatisfied with their workplaces;

2. Attrition is happening in traditional firms which leads to inefficiencies in those

policing agencies;

3. Alternate modern, flexible agency opportunities exist, and are expanding with

increased demand for crime solutions;

4. Therefore the labour pool for traditional policing is evaporating and there will

eventually be a shortage of labour in public policing.

John Kotter, “A Sense of Urgency”

52

Page 53: Coaching for Change_Behaviour Analytics for Law Enforcement Agencies FINAL

Step 9: Achieve Buy-In

Spiral Dynamics Theory provides all of the tools necessary to design a plan for

hierarchical culture change – a solution to bullying in the law enforcement workplace as

called for by the Corcoran (2014) study.

The key element in hierarchy is power. Unless the power is relinquished the culture will not

change.

In public law enforcement, there is no incentive for the persons in power to give up that

power or move the org structure along the spiral. Empire, Democracy works for them.

Those with power may refuse to buy into change to Human Bond, Flex or Globalstructures, which are not based on legitimate power (position, rank).

Without unanimous buy-in, historical methods of change such as modeling the change

(lead by example), introducing human bond values (sensitivity training) and/or business

change management model (Kotter, Harvard Business School) will not be successful.

53

Page 54: Coaching for Change_Behaviour Analytics for Law Enforcement Agencies FINAL

Step 9: Achieve Buy-InOvercome Resistance

Test Scenario: Subordinate requested change in onerous command and control

conditions to flexible, integrated system to avoid monetary loss

Resistor Enviro: Hierarchical, traditional private law enforcement, superior to Requestor

Resistor Profile: Empire/Democracy

Response: No. This is the way it is. Do what [we] say or you will [forfeit your right to stay]

Consequence: Subordinate loss of current and future income and investment in training

54

Page 55: Coaching for Change_Behaviour Analytics for Law Enforcement Agencies FINAL

Step 9: Achieve Buy-InOvercome Resistance

Conclusion: Resistance will not be overcome if powerholder/resistor is operating at:

1. Empire level - the requestor is coming onto “turf, uninvited”

2. Democracy level – the requestor is putting down (or making fun of) their plan - the “one true way”

55

Page 56: Coaching for Change_Behaviour Analytics for Law Enforcement Agencies FINAL

Step 10: Implement the Plan

Should the Analyst proceed without buy-in to lobby for change by defying the hierarchy and interacting with egalitarian and flexibility at the workplace to ensuring peak efficiency in their hierarchical environments?

No. According to Spiral Dynamics Theory, the attitudes of the empire, democracy and capitalist superiors are that lower ranks should not “talk back” - that you should stay in your place, not challenge their authority, and “just do what you are told”. Or leave.

leaders is not enough to understand the people, but it is a start:

Strategic Assessment

For the weak to control the strong, it is logically

necessary to await a change.

When their storehouses are full and their soldiers are in

top form, then you should withdraw in order to watch

for an opening when they relax, observing any

changes and responding to them.

Page 63: Coaching for Change_Behaviour Analytics for Law Enforcement Agencies FINAL

Recommendations to StakeholdersCrime & Intelligence Analysts

Option #1: For now, until buy-in is achieved from the power-holders in hierarchical organizations, in order to manage the risk of financial and psychological effects of hierarchical workplaces, the analyst should acquire soft skills in acceptance of change to prepare him/herself for change of jobs as soon as the environment is undesirable.

MindTools – yearly subscription to online mind development exercises

Option #2: For now, the analyst should choose to pursue investigation and evidence analysis employment at a modern private agency where it is more likely that there is a flexible attitude amongst leadership and co-workers. Examples:

BAIR Analytics

Toddingham Investigations

General Insurance Adjusters

Your Own Agency (Self-Employment)

63

Page 64: Coaching for Change_Behaviour Analytics for Law Enforcement Agencies FINAL

Recommendations to StakeholdersAgency Managers

Option #1: If your traditional police agency is interested in implementing the solution in this project, there may be a successful buy-in strategy which emerges from the beta testing of:

Every Officer is a Leader police agency online leadership organization change program currently in pilot project at Los Angeles Police Department

Option #2: If you are an Agency Leader who would like change, but the organization conditions are not yet suitable:

1. Enroll in an academic Leadership program eg. Royal Roads University

2. Acquire personal competencies from Every Officer is a Leader (Amazon)

64

Page 65: Coaching for Change_Behaviour Analytics for Law Enforcement Agencies FINAL

Recommendations to StakeholdersMembers of the Public
