When you are a leader you need good people around you who will point out if you have gotten something wrong when you have gotten something wrong so that you can put it right and have your organisation running ship-shape and efficiently again.
This more so applies to the leader in that if they see members of their team going askew, it is on the leader to fix the problem a soon a possible.
It seems here that Dick encouraged negligence among her officers, which made her highly unsuitable to be the leader of a police force.
