Can our traditional hierarchical model of policing enable us to meet the level of complexity of future threats?

This is the question posed by Simon O’Rourke, a police officer with over 20 years of operational experience and a keen interest in technology. He is the recipient of the 2017 Fulbright Western Australia Postdoctoral Scholarship, which saw him appointed as a fellow at the Program on Crisis Leadership at the Harvard Kennedy School for the 2017-18 Academic Year.

In this TEDx presentation, O’Rourke discusses why we need an innovation revolution in policing that will enable us to keep pace with our increasingly digitized and networked society.
