In Chapter 5, the author reminds us that historically, prison management was really a “chain of command.” For the purposes of this class, let us think of corrections management as personnel management. The author also discusses management theories and styles, new directions for prison management, and supervision of inmates.
For this module, your assignment is to discuss the differences between management and leadership in an institution.

Your response should go beyond the obvious, include additional research, and be written at a graduate level. Your answer must be no less than 1000 words with three resources.
