There is one week left to nominate a colleague for the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) Officer of the Year Award. Reward and recognition are a critical part of leadership, and awards like this are an excellent way of recognizing your people for their accomplishments. #Lead #leadership #policechief #thinblueline #growth #leadingblue #police #leadershipdevelopment #thejob #lawenforcement #backtheblue #professionaldevelopment #corrections #sheriff #resiliency #statepolice #troopers #campuspolice #leaders

On February 14th I attended a training sponsored by REACH (Racial Equity Advancement & Collaborative Hub) at the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, along with Chief Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Officer Jesse Edwards and several other Framingham representatives. Department heads, town managers, city councilors and HR representatives from over 10+ neighboring municipalities and organizations were present. Very powerful and insightful information was shared, such as "not putting your strategy before your objective" when conducting inclusionary work. As part of this training, I joined a committee on behalf of Framingham's HR department, to regularly attend these monthly meetings and discuss how information can be directly applied to our roles. More posts to come. One of the key points emphasized by REACH was that Racial Equity efforts (drawing a distinction from less quantifiable Diversity & Inclusion initiatives...as it was explained to us) should be fueled by a personal connection, relevancy and direct-impact to your work, regardless of one's self identified demographic. As we continue to celebrate Black History Month, I bring you not just Black History...but Black History relevant and impactful to Framingham. Please see this post highlighting our very own Chief Lester Baker, shared by the Massachusetts Association of Minority Law Enforcement Officers and re-shared by Deputy Chief Sean Riley! I challenge you to dis(un)cover the Black History relevant to your own places of employment, personal connections, and areas of influence. Comment this history below should you feel led to do so!

Professional security experts run into danger, not away. Well done!

Exploring the challenges and complexities of policing, #POLICEMag spotlights the unique perspective from someone who transitioned from attending peace marches to supporting police officers as a chaplain turned counsellor. Delving into the profound impact of trauma, the former police chaplain shares sobering statistics and personal reflections on the demanding nature of police work: "Most people will encounter three or four traumatic events in their lifetimes, while a police officer will encounter 400 to 600."

If you’re command staff, are you bringing in outside training companies to instruct, teach and mentor your officers? If you’re an individual officer, are you seeking training outside of your agency? If not, you should be! If your department is interested in bringing us out, we would be honored to come teach pistol and carbine classes designed to maximize your performance and confidence.
