Description

Prior to beginning work on this discussion read Chapters 1, 2, 3, and 9 in your textbook, the Mastrofski, S. D. (2004)and Chambers, K. (2012) articles.

Drawing on your current professional expertise and utilizing the required and researched sources, create an initial post in which you analyze institutional behavior in your state corrections system.

  • Describe how professionalism can be tied directly to the institutional culture and organizational subculture.
  • Analyze the recommendations made for institutional culture changes within the readings and discuss how these changes could be implemented in your state.
