A Recognized Leader in Law Enforcement, Corporate and Municipal Training

Our Charge

Is to assist our clients with creating a leadership culture that is characterized by making all employees feel like valued stakeholders thus striving to deliver results and exceed expectations. A leader’s job is to achieve the goals of the organization and satisfy the needs of individual employees. In addition, a leader must develop individuals who are capable of making future contributions to organizational goals, acting like leaders when called upon, and becoming formal leaders in the future. Employees are increasingly looking to the leaders in their workplace to support their development as a whole person, not just as an employee who makes a job contribution. The leader must also develop the organization’s capacity to adapt to rapid change brought about by new environments and missions and to perform at higher levels in more complex situations. 

We seek to support your organization in developing psychological safety in the workplace:

Psychological safety is about candor, about making it possible for productive disagreement and free exchange of ideas. It is about conflict without casualties. It goes without saying that these are vital to learning and innovation. Conflict inevitably arises in any workplace. Psychological safety enables people on different sides of a conflict to speak candidly about what’s bothering them. To make the environment safe for open communication about challenges, concerns, and opportunities is one of the most important leadership responsibilities in the twenty-first century.

We seek to support your organization with the seasons of organizational life:

Life and organizations have seasons, stages, and phases. For there to be anything new, old things always have to end, and we have to let go of them. In Policing, Corporate or other business ventures, endings often are absolute necessities for a turn-around or for growth to occur. We sometimes must let go of old strategies or even entire areas whose day has passed. To get to the next level and often even to sustain their current levels of health, leaders must shut down yesteryear’s good ideas, strategies, or involvements in order to have the resources and focus to take their organizations to tomorrow

Loyalty

You began your career by honoring the Constitution, the basis of our government and laws. Beyond your allegiance to the Constitution, you have an obligation to be faithful to the community, its people, and to your team or organization. Few examples illustrate loyalty to community and its institution as well as the example public servants across this country.

Integrity

Integrity comes from a congruence between thoughts, feelings, words, and actions-when all that you are and do spring from your core values. Gandhi was one of the greatest examples of integrity we have seen in modern times, and the many moving stories about his life demonstrate the power of teaching this character trait by example.

Optimism

is "an inclination to put the most favorable construction upon actions and events or to anticipate the best possible outcome. Optimistic employees looked at problems, old and new, and go to work on them as they always have. They asked questions, and they began to craft answers to them. Optimistic employees can face the future confident that they will meet its challenges.

Nobility

is defined as having personal qualities that people admire- qualities such as courage, honest, and care for others. These are qualities you want to demonstrate every time you interface with the customer to carry out your duties with—courage— honesty—compassion-care for others—and above all, upholding the noble standards of this organization.
