Overview

This course is aimed at current and future leaders, specifically non-sworn personnel. This two-week seminar is the third of three parts in the Civilian Leadership Series. It can be taken independently or in conjunction with the other sessions.

This course is designed to prepare senior-level managers and executives for leadership in the complex world of public safety administration. The academic experience prepares individuals to take part in:

  • Providing leadership in their agencies on problem solving and management issues.
  • Applying progressive and innovative management approaches to their agencies.
  • Communicating, both to their colleagues and to the public, plans and programs for change and improvement of police services.
  • Gaining professional knowledge as a life-long learner and acquiring critical thinking skills.
  • Developing a personal leadership style characterized by creativity, service and empathy.
  • Respecting diversity and encouraging cross-cultural, gender, and generational understanding.

Daily Topics

  • Effective Meetings
    This instruction will help students develop strategies and techniques for effectively planning, organizing, and conducting meetings within their workplace.
  • Employee Engagement: Strategies for Building Motivated, Resilient and Invested Teams
    Employee engagement is extremely beneficial to any workplace. But what does it really mean for the law enforcement profession where suicides occur in greater number than on-duty deaths? It means that managing for employee engagement is not only beneficial. It is essential. This high-impact one-day session is aimed for law enforcement leaders interested in learning how to build a more resilient agency. It gives managers a framework and practical tools to engage, motivate and retain employees by addressing primary causes of job misery.
  • Holocaust Museum (off-site)
  • Leadership Challenge Presentations
  • LEADing from Within: Practical Applications of Servant Leadership and Problem Oriented Policing
    This session is presented as an informal group-discussion based on the concepts developed by the Robert K. Greenleaf Center for Applied Ethics. It will emphasize increased service to others, a holistic approach to work, promoting a sense of community and the sharing of power and decision-making.
  • Legacy Ethics
    This session is based on the text, Ordinary Men. Participants will discuss the meaning of “legacy” and why it is important. What kind of legacy did the Reserve Police Battalion 101 leave behind and what can we learn from these men and their actions?
  • Public Speaking
    This course of instruction will provide opportunities for the development and enhancement of public speaking skills. It will also familiarize participants with a variety of instructional media, and the means for crafting and outlining an effective presentation. Learning in this area is intended to be highly interactive, with feedback from both instructor and classmates comprising a significant element in the growth process.
  • Reset the Clock
    This block of instruction will provide participants specific, practical advice on how to minimize the risks of day-to-day management; foster a harmonious working environment; and protect your departmental and personal assets.
