DEVELOPMENTAL MODELS

> Underlying developmental models of supervision is the notion that we each are
continuously growing, in fits and starts, in growth spurts and patterns. In combining
our experience and hereditary predispositions we develop strengths and growth
areas. The object is to maximize and identify growth needed for the future. Thus, it is
typical to be continuously identifying new areas of growth in a life-long learning
process. Stoltenberg and Delworth (1987) described a developmental model with
three levels of supervisees: beginning, intermediate, and advanced. Within each
level the authors noted a trend to begin in a rigid, shallow, imitative way and move
toward more competence, self-assurance, and self-reliance for each level.

Example:
● Typical development in beginning supervisees would find them relatively
dependent on the supervisor to diagnose/understand/explain client
behaviours and attitudes and establish plans for intervention.

Application of Developmental Models within the PNP Organization

The Philippine National Police (PNP) employs developmental models in its


operations and administration through various motivational theories and leadership
styles:

Motivational Theories

1. Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs: The PNP seeks to fulfill basic to higher-level needs
of its personnel, fostering a supportive environment that encourages career
development.

2. Herzberg’s Two-Factor Theory: The organization recognizes factors that lead to


job satisfaction and dissatisfaction to create a motivating work environment.

Leadership Style

1.Transformational Leadership: PNP leaders inspire and motivate personnel to


exceed expectations, emphasizing professional development and organizational
goals.

2. Servant Leadership: Leaders focus on the growth and well-being of their team
members, promoting a supportive culture that aligns with developmental supervision.

Specific Theories Associated with Developmental Models


1. Gibbs' Reflective Cycle: Encourages continuous reflection on experiences to
facilitate learning and personal growth among PNP personnel.

2. Kolb's Experiential Learning Theory: Emphasizes learning through experience,


relevant for training and real-world application in policing contexts.

Projects, Programs, and Activities of the PNP Related to Developmental Models

1. Training and Development Programs: The PNP conducts regular training sessions
focused on skills enhancement and leadership development, adhering to the
principles of developmental supervision.

2. Community Engagement Initiatives: Programs that involve police officers working


closely with communities foster both personal and professional growth, allowing
officers to apply learned skills in real-world scenarios.

3. Performance Management System: A structured approach to evaluate and


develop personnel based on their performance, integrating developmental feedback
mechanisms.

4. Mentorship Programs: Pairing seasoned officers with newer recruits to guide them
through the early stages of their careers, embodying the mentorship aspect of
developmental models.
