WORKSHOPS & KEYNOTES

The Leader of Character Team believes inspiration is paired best with the practical ‘how to’ using examples that law enforcement can relate to. The audience will know what to do when they leave because they will practice the words and actions in the room.

BECOMING AN OFFICER OF CHARACTER

“Would you follow you?”  That is the question every officer and every leader in law enforcement should be asking themselves.  During this fast paced and interactive keynote, we lay out a plan that includes the Why, the What, and the How to develop your character and the character of the people you are called to lead.  In law enforcement, where training is almost always focused on tactical decision making, it is the non-tactical decisions – decisions of character – that get law enforcement leaders in trouble.  This keynote is designed to inspire and equip the attendees to develop their character and the character of their teams.  Everything we discuss comes from Dave Anderson’s book Becoming a Leader of Character and the Six Habits of Character:  Courage, Humility, Integrity, Selflessness, Duty, and Positivity.  “Would you follow you?”  We want you to answer “Yes” to that question.

Building a Culture of Character in Law Enforcement Agencies

Character failures are hurting the reputation of law enforcement. Yet, we continue to train tactics religiously, then hope our personnel pass the character tests they face. But hope is a lousy leadership strategy. We must prepare people for those character tests. Will they choose character or something less? Culture will happen. It is the leadership’s responsibility to shape and guide the culture to become a Culture of Character. West Point has been the model for character development for centuries. That model will work in any agency. But, it takes intentionality from the leaders to shape the culture of the agencies they lead. This is not a discussion of theory. This is a practical class where you will walk away with an outline any agency can implement, if the leaders are intentional.

Why Does Ethics Training Fail? And what can we do about it?

Has the ethics training we’ve done for decades changed behaviors? Most ethics training focuses on “what not to do” and the punishment for those poor choices. But, we still have people making poor choices in our communities and inside our own teams. Instead of threats, what if we developed wise decision makers? A proven method that develops wise decision makers involves The Six Habits of Character and West Point’s Three Rules of Thumb. In this session, attendees learn about a plan that is not built on threats, but on building individual and organizational character in the agencies you lead. We focus on “This is what do we do?” Instead of “what not to do.”
