Are You the Best Law Enforcement Leader You Can Be?

In law enforcement there's no shortage of rules and regulations that describe standard operating procedure. Yet the fundamentals of great leadership in our field aren't always so clear-cut. Despite their best intentions, leaders may communicate poorly, motivate ineffectively, and behave in ways that aren't in the best interests of their people or their organization.

The Leader's Compass for Law Enforcement Professionals - 10 hours - $49.95

If you've ever wondered what qualities make a good law enforcement leader-and how you can master them-take this course. It conveys important lessons through the story of Adam McGraw, a newly minted police sergeant whose leadership skills are put to the test after he is assigned a squad of underperforming misfits.

During his first few months on the job, McGraw learns a) that it takes more than rank to truly establish authority, and b) that results are driven not only by directives but also through clear standards, effective communication, and the belief that a team is only as good as its people. Police leaders at all levels will identify with the challenges McGraw faces, and they'll be able to apply the lessons he learns to their own careers.

Dennis Haley and Roy E. Alston have written a fable that reveals how and why leaders often influence their teams negatively instead of positively. More importantly, The Leader's Compass for Law Enforcement Professionals lays out steps that leaders in all areas and levels of law enforcement can use to clarify their values, guide their actions, and communicate effectively with their teams as they seek to protect and serve.
