COURSE DESCRIPTION:

Are you a sworn or civilian law enforcement supervisor? Are you considering becoming a first-line supervisor? Are you interested in becoming a better leader? If so, this executive summit is for you. You have spent some time learning all the skills it takes to be a good cop, deputy, agent, or civilian member of a law enforcement agency. You have proven yourself on the front lines. You relied on tools such as protective instruments, defensive tactics, handcuffs, firearms, and your experience. In short, you have been a Superhero.

To successfully transition from Superhero to Supervisor requires a new set of tools and skills, soft skills. As a supervisor, you are expected to know how to motivate the superheroes you lead, rate their performance, reward them when they do an outstanding job, and hold them accountable when they screw up. You also have a boss to report to who will hold you responsible for doing all those things. After attending this executive summit, you will be equipped with a new set of tools. Think about it as an entry-level academy for supervisors. If you follow the guidelines and lessons provided in this training, you will not only be a successful supervisor, you will also be a confident leader that others look up to and respect. It’s time to arm yourself with soft skills for hard results!
