In Pursuit of Excellence

This book has been written specifically for the leadership and management needs of the law enforcement professional.

Most examples in this book are real-life examples and will relate directly to law enforcement, and therefore should be practical to the law enforcement professional.

This book will discuss many principles of leadership.

It will provide stories, examples, and experiences that offer lessons and takeaways linked directly to leadership principles.

It will also dive into management and law enforcement-specific topics as to how you might drive performance, maintain accountability, or just do a more effective job as a supervisor.

The ideas and suggestions made in this book are founded on sound leadership behaviors.

The content is practical, and though the foundational leadership principles are nothing new, they are presented differently and specifically to law enforcement.

Everything rises and falls on your ability to lead. All the supervisors in your organization may be carrying out the same tasks as expected of your organization's management.

However, whether they are successful or whether their work group is effective will depend on the type of leaders they are.

This book shows how a person can take action to eliminate or minimize leadership voids to enhance their ability to lead and develop high-performing, successful work groups.

The book has a useful appendix, and references have been included for the reader to continue to grow and seek out materials that reinforce the principles presented.
