AZPOST Front Line Leadership

Making the transition from police officer to a police supervisor is a challenge. However, such a transition is made simpler with an education on the science of management coupled with the art of leadership. Front Line Leadership or FLL, is designed to build industry knowledge and skills that better enable attendees to successfully transition from a line level employee into a leadership position in the career of public safety. Content will introduce students to the fundamental concepts and skills of professionalism, organizational culture and management, characteristics of effective teams, conflict resolution, motivation, systems thinking, problem solving, and leadership. Possibly the most important and impactful aspect of this course involves the tools that will be provided to cause self-reflection in each attendee. Purposefully designed with self-examining reflective modules, a detailed workshop on personality profile assessment, as well as directed group discussions driven to challenge one's thought process, this training will provide each student the ability to continuously assess and improve upon their own leadership behavior.
