The following are some areas of focus:
Awareness from an organizational cultural perspective of Inspecting what we Expect—Measuring what we Manage and ensuring that Counted Counts. A healthy culture typically focuses on measurements, rewards, and how we hold people to account with the following five focus areas surrounding people, process, and behaviors - Policy, Incentives, Technology, Supervision, and Accountability.
Building relationships, friendships, and partnerships with many in the community, as well as elected officials, front-line cops/unions, and command staff are all equally and vitally important to a new & tenured executive leader to cultivate and sustain.
Leadership is about inspiring others, it's about service to them, - empowering and trusting - devoid of ego, leading with humility, and continuous improvement, and delivering news and change at a rate people can absorb. Situational dependent leadership for those employees that might not always be willing but are capable and providing tools, and a roadmap with milestones for success. We can help build a roadmap, strategic plan or assist in team building.
With over 27 years in law enforcement, l can assist in developing crime-reduction strategies, illustrate the value of leveraging technology, and show the value of providing key performance indicators (KPIs) for each rank with deliverables that strive to be Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-Bound (SMART). Goals shouldn't be check the box processes, but systems and standard operating procedures that are sustainable and infused into everything we do.

Our Approach - Authenticity with a Focus on Partnerships, Relationships, and Friendships.
I believe in a collaborative approach, where we work closely with you to understand needs and develop solutions that are rooted in SMART goals. Our goal is to build long-lasting relationships.
We want to know your why and you will know ours - so that we know what success looks like (end state) but conversely what failure may look like so that we can do everything we can to mitigate it.
Contact us for training, investigations & discipline evaluations, speaking and presentation engagements on evidence-based policing, team building, strategic plans, creating a compelling vision, promotional assessment, and law enforcement executive coaching. To that end, scalability, relationships, behaviors, sound systems, and measurements are vitally important.
What makes me potentially qualified? Years of experience in challenging and complex policing environments, seeing good and bad leadership, making mistakes, and, most importantly, learning from those mistakes. I am relatable to executives as I have been in the arena - I did it right at times but, equally, and most importantly, didn't do it so well.
