All Things Leadership for Public Safety

Richard ‘Brad’ Starnes | 2022

Abstract

Through multiple decades of experience of the author, along with research on the topic of law enforcement leadership, gap analysis identified deficiencies regarding leadership in the public safety career fields, specifically law enforcement. The deficiencies included a lack of proper leadership training to law enforcement not in command/staff/executive positions with such training, if ever provided, not provided until the law enforcement personnel reach a predetermined rank and/or position. Such training may not be provided for several reasons including financial statuses of agencies, manpower deficiencies, or rank/grade/position requirements. Given the negative atmospherics of today’s society towards law enforcement, a call to action is an imperative for change. It is the hypothesis of the author that law enforcement will benefit from this program by learning and understanding the importance of leadership and followership, increasing their emotional intelligence quotients, and becoming more self-aware to make well-rounded decisions, communicating more empathetically, and identifying best practices to better themselves and others. The results can produce smarter and more engaged law enforcement officials and safer communities all while merging the gaps between the two entities.
