Back to Episodes176: A Word to Police Applicants & Active Officers, on the Hiring Landscape, the Career, and What Mindset you Need
Description
So much of my "why" is to help guide the next generation of cops, police professionals and leaders in the ways I can best. Much of that comes from sharing my experiences, missteps, and lessons learned. After many years in this career- there are many.
In the episode, I paint the picture of the climate of law enforcement. While initially geared for new applicants, the message rings true for all of us that are in this realm. I focus on the importance of mindset and give prompts to how we can solidify and strengthen our own- so we can put that forth and lead our best way in the work we do.
For those active officers looking to take the next step, the Police Promotional Process Prep Guide is live at bluegritwellness.com/shop. It's not just test prep (there's a lot of that) but development of mindset and leadership philosophy, with exercises, prompts, and examples.
For prospective new hires- check out the Hiring and Testing Guide! (on the site as well!)
