 supervision of police personnelFeb 24, 2001
By roger crihfield
Supervision of Police personnel (6th) edition by Iannone/Iannone was included in the reference materials for recent promotional exams for both Sgt. and Lt.. Urge your civil service commission not to use this book. The authors take a paragraph to say what could be said in one sentence. Every paragraph contains run on sentences which makes for laborious reading at best. If the authors would heed their own advice concerning brevity this book would easily be half as many pages. There are other books that cover the same subject and most do it better.

IANNONE-POLICE SUPERVISIONJan 29, 2000
THE BOOK ALTHOUGH SOMEWHAT INFORMATIVE IS LONG WINDED, BORING AND SEVERLY LACKING IN EXAMPLES. IT IS A HARD READ FOR EVEN THE MOST EDUCATED OF READER. IANNONE HAS MANAGED TO TAKE A 150 PAGE BOOK AND TRANSFORM IT INTO 360 LONG ARDUOUS PAGES.

Practice what you preach.Apr 29, 2000
I bought this book because our annual Sgt.'s exam would be taken from this text. While what Iannone covered was very important, his constant run on sentences made this text very difficult to read. Perhaps if Mr. Iannone would follow his own advice for instruction, avoiding oversimplification or overcomplication...then more people would retain the information contained in the book. Most of my fellow officers said that after reading a chapter, they had difficulty remembering what had been said. I had to go back to my old management books to get some of the basic ideas covered in Iannone's book.

 Great for preparing for CA POST Sergeant's Exam!Dec 22, 1998
I purchased Iannone's book as part of my preparation for the California State Sergeant's Exam and found it to directly answer several of the questions in the management section of the test. I highly recommend this as a resource for anyone seeking to promote in law enforcement.

Iannone ranks #1 on list of police stressors.Jan 26, 2002
By JT
Ugh! This book is awful. I also don't know anyone else who feels differently. It is required reading for Lt/Sgt. exams even though there are usually only a few questions related to the material. I think whoever writes the exams that way after requiring this book must be a sadist who hates cops. Or maybe is just concerned about insomnia from rotating shifts because this book can put you to sleep in a half a page. Who needs a doctor? Just read Iannone. I am sure there must be some very good factual or theoretical information in the book - otherwise it wouldn't be as well known as it is. (I sure hope so and its not simply that Iannone married the sister of some official who has sway over these things. Gotta love law enforcement.) Then again, there are also things in the book that are impractical at best. I can't tell you how to score high on the exam and it doesn't matter because a high score doesn't mean you will be a good supervisor and that is what is most important - will your cops follow you - happily? Read Iannone but start studying profiles in great leaders and look within your own department to those supervisors who hold the respect and confidence of the cops and just as you did while a rookie, cultivate these examples and merge your own style into them. Look to present leadership but don't fashion yourself as a clone - so much of the success of our work depends on our authenticity as people, try to be someone else and everyone will detect that immediately. #1 rule of success and safety - have an unwavering respect for yourself and unwavering belief in yourself. So, I think that Ianonne should grab a successful writer and let them form the concepts into sentences. Then we would have the best of him without the droning. But if they have to pay this person - what would the price go to then? Good luck on the test. Stay safe.
