Innovative Ways to Teach and Develop Your People: A practical handbook to develop adaptive thinking and leadership abilities in those on the bleeding edge of today's Law Enforcement and Security challenges. With techniques and methodologies proven over years of real-world application, this book will bring to life "how to think" under stressful, ambiguous and often dangerous circumstances. By improving the speed and accuracy of your decision-making and problem solving, you can adapt and respond effectively to any situation.

This is my first book although I was honored to write the book with a dear friend and quite frankly a mentor, Don Vandergriff, who has written several books on leadership and development. Don and I have spent the last decade developing programs of instruction that would benefit those who need to make tough decisions under pressure. We have worked with the military, police officers and security professionals as well as private enterprises looking to improve their organizational effectiveness. 

The Adaptive Leadership Handbook: Innovative Ways to Teach and Develop Your People is a compilation of these efforts. We chose to write this book because we wanted to share the information we know has value in continually improving individuals and organizations speed and maturity of decision making, while at the same time developing a gung ho, working together culture that is focused on lifelong learning  while reaching successful outcomes in the most extreme conditions. 

This was a challenge for me as I am not a writer by nature. My past experience had been to develop ideas and then translate them to programs of instruction to help cops succeed on the street. Through encouragement by many to attempt to put these ideas into a written format I began a law enforcement and security blog in 2006 which initially contained my thoughts and ideas and how others could utilize them. Over the last several years the blog has grown into a hybrid law enforcement blog, that focuses on writing and publishing articles (various authors with various views) devoted to helping law enforcement and security professionals achieve their full potential in their field. We have won awards and the blog brings several hundred thousand visitors from around the world reading the information contained there. 

Now as I mentioned above Don and I have put our ideas into book form. A book we hope you not only learn from but that you actually enjoy reading and refer back to because the lessons are simple and real, making them valuable to individuals and organizations. 

Thank you for taking the time to read the book and we look forward to the future discourse the book inspires.

Stay Oriented!
