December 7, 2023

Good morning. Welcome to December, full crazy in some places, ideally calm in others, and 18 days until Christmas.

The "silly season" is upon us as surely as fall/winter weather. Staff accordingly. Pay attention to signs of stress overload. Lead from the front.

Stay safe!

Lt. Frank Borelli (ret.)

FEATURES
Police and law enforcement officials new to leadership can struggle with preparation, and a lack of discipline in that area can put commanders a step closer to failure.
Technology is an integral part of every public safety structure and should be planned for accordingly.
Generational perspective can create workplace prejudices that we need to strive to avoid.
Hiring quality recruits requires an agency to maintain a respected image as well as demonstrating value to the community beyond strict enforcement.
