Today's youth have grown up in a world that is very different from that of most adults. Many young people experience the Internet and other technological advancements as a positive, productive and creative part of their lives and development of their identities - always on and always there. Unfortunately, these same technologies are also being used in a negative manner. One such abuse involves bullying via electronic means, or Cyberbullying. Previously safe and enjoyable environments and activities can all too quickly turn threatening and become a source of anxiety. Current research in this area indicates that Cyberbullying is a part of many young people's lives.

Suicide is the #1 cause of death for police officers every year with an estimated nearly 20% suffering from PTSD. Many others suffer from the daily traumas of the job with low resiliency, depression, addictions, lack of motivation, mental and emotional illnesses. Most agencies do not have a Wellness Program to promote emotional survival. Officers distressed with PTSD and emotional suffering are incapable of providing effective professional services to the community. Bulletproof Spirit provides proactive wellness strategies for individual success, agency effectiveness, and community impact.

Engagement begins with the use of four simple keys…people, places, the things they do, and the times they do them. These four simple benchmarks can help street officers know their beat and effectively police their areas of responsibility. They are also the same four keys of focus that can help senior and executive level leaders guide their agencies in a manner that promotes professionalism, attentiveness to the community, and officer morale and resiliency. Senior and executive level leadership are often in positions where they make critical decisions. Sometimes those decisions can be viewed as setbacks or failures. The presentation provides insight for law enforcement leadership to effectively deal with setbacks and move forward.

This motivational presentation will cover what it takes to be a good professional and highlight the power of being a good person. I will illustrate how to take individual talents and apply them to the group setting to make an unstoppable and productive team. It is my belief that the ability to lead is present in everyone, regardless of their rank in an organization or irrespective of their situation in life. There are common characteristics that respected people and effective leaders share- most of these traits are developed by the individual rather than through the position they hold. This presentation will cover some of these most important leadership traits, as well as how each individual can use the lessons of yesterday to overcome challenges of today and capitalize on the opportunities of tomorrow.

Today agencies throughout the United States are struggling to attract and retain qualified police recruits. Police shootings, a relatively rare occurrence, are intensely scrutinized by the media and in many cases the facts are distorted or completely misrepresented. Prosecutors in some jurisdictions are quick to charge officers before investigations are complete and in some cases even begun in what can be described as “knee-jerk” decisions, or worse – politically motivated. And as police administrators we aren’t necessarily doing ourselves any favors. Today, even top level police administrators need to pay attention to the street level tactics (or lack of tactics) used by their officers – because frankly, we’re not.
Some shootings and some other uses of force can’t be avoided. Sometimes no matter what tactics we train our people on ultimately fail to prevent a tragedy. But the vast majority of the time, through careful analysis, we find that if our tactics were better the outcomes would have been much different. The mandate for that change has to come from the top of the organization. In this presentation, we will briefly examine the history of where we were “back-in-the-day” and quickly move to a discussion of where we are now. We’ll discuss the recruiting challenges and what successful agencies are doing to attract candidates – without lowering the bar. Leadership issues are broken down into practical, actionable, application. The program is fast-paced and includes rich mixture including reviews of contemporary incidents, video, analysis, lessons-learned, policy development, and candid class discussion. Significant emphasis is placed on getting rid of the “we’ve always done it that way” mindset.

Emotional intelligence (EQ) is critical in public safety leadership, as it enhances the ability to manage high-stress environments and make sound decisions. Leaders with high EQ can better understand and regulate their own emotions, while effectively recognizing and responding to the emotional needs of their teams. This fosters trust, communication, and resilience, which are essential in public safety roles like law enforcement, firefighting, and emergency response. Leaders who excel in EI build strong, cohesive teams, handle crises with empathy, and reduce burnout, ultimately improving both team performance and public outcomes..

These concepts can be applied to both an individual's personal and professional life. How an individual reacts to choices, change, commitment, creativity, control, confidence, responsibility, enthusiasm, leadership, investment, expectant attitude and humor, largely determines whether they have what it takes to "Lead by Example."

Organizational leaders will improve their effectiveness by increasing their understanding of evidence-based leader action processes, organizational and human performance strategies, and a proven action model. Transformational leaders work with teams to identify needed change, creating a vision to guide the change through inspiration, and executing the change in tandem with committed members of a group. It is an integral part of a full range leadership approach. Transformational leadership is when leader behaviors influence followers and inspire them to perform beyond their perceived capabilities. Transformational leadership inspires people to achieve unexpected or remarkable results. It gives workers autonomy over specific jobs, as well as the authority to make decisions once they have been trained. This induces a positive change in the follower's attitudes and the organization as a whole. Transformational leaders typically perform four distinct behaviors; inspirational motivation, idealized influence, intellectual stimulation, individualized consideration.

De-Escalation is the term that can sometimes make law enforcement officers cringe and community members rally. But does the law enforcement profession really understand it? Since 2022 there is a national initiative to standardize de-escalation training for law enforcement across the country. While there are a multitude of de-escalation training programs out there, many are not addressing the fundamental principles and tenets of true de-escalation and crisis management. This presentation seeks to enlighten the audience on what it is, what principles lie at its core, what is being created on a national level, and how to be a leader in defining it for the future of law enforcement. This presentation will enlighten police leaders on how to embrace it and use it to reinforce community engagement and enhance officer safety and wellness.

The majority of law enforcement agencies across the country rely on the standard model of policing to reduce crime: random patrol, rapid response to calls for service, and prosecution of offenders in order to reduce crime. Nearly 50 years of research show that this model does not work. Significant research during the same time period has produced evidence to show what actually does work to reduce crime. This presentation will highlight some of the most important aspects of this research and show police leaders how to translate that research into practices that can produce real results in crime reduction, and well as how to institutionalize and sustain these practices.
