unit management
type: Concept
definition: During the 1970s, the U.S. Bureau of Prisons (BOP) revolutionized prison administration by developing the practice known as unit management. Unit management has at its heart the notion that a decentralized organization is better able than a centralized one to respond quickly to changes in the environment.
