THE 5 DANGERS OF A NEW LEADERSHIP ROLE
Leaders often assume that they - themselves - should have all the answers, simply because they’re in a “leadership role” and all eyes are on them. Not being the expert can be unsettling. However, leaders need to acknowledge that it is gravely difficult (or perhaps an impossibility) to “know EVERYTHING”.

The Case for Financial Fitness for Law Enforcement Officers
A recent article published by the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) lists financial fitness as one of the essential factors for officers to stay mentally healthy and maintain above average stability in other aspects of their life.

Using Data Differently
Policing professionals and leaders know that meaningful and robust data is needed to identify, understand and address systemic issues that affect community safety and police-community relationships.

A Collaborative Approach to Sourcing Video Data for Police Investigations
In July 2019, a 40-year-old male was charged – and eventually convicted – with attempted murder after racing his tractor-trailer through a Belleville city suburb and slamming into his partner’s apartment building.

Implementing Evidence-based Policing
Policing can no longer move forward with initiatives and programs without critically questioning their effective-ness. EBP goes further than simply examining data at the surface level. Instead, it looks to employ empirical methods and past findings to ques-tion why we do what we do, and to evaluate if our strategies are benefi-cial or harmful.
