Look, Listen, learn and lead… There is no question we have a mission to accomplish and it’s an “All-In” job to get done. The most important resource to accomplish that mission is the people. Understanding the dynamics of today’s federal firefighters and the realization that if you did not have people in your organization, you would be leading yourself; and really, that makes you a doer vice a leader.
Do the people in your organization wake up in the morning and get ready for a bright new day full of opportunities (which will come with mistakes too)? Understanding firefighters generally want to do a good job and add value to their department. This presentation is focused on embracing your role in helping your team thrive and becoming comfortable in being uncomfortable with the intentions of taking care of people. Hear about opportunities to demonstrate that people are important to you and that you truly care about them. Demonstrating that leadership in today’s DOD Fire and Emergency Services organizations cannot be lip service because the team will see right through the façade.
