Becoming a new police chief can make the prospect of organizational change feel overwhelming. But thoughtful change is often the most effective way to demonstrate a commitment to your team’s safety and well-being.
For some new chiefs, stepping into the role brings excitement and a long-awaited opportunity to revitalize the organization and prioritize wellness through meaningful improvements.
Public safety has faced significant scrutiny in recent years, and there is no shortage of opinions both inside and outside the profession. As a new chief, you need reliable data and proven strategies that prevent officer injury, reduce liability, and support officer wellness.
