Review Of Art L. Howell's Speech

Desire, persistence, and hard work are the key elements to a successful career. A guest speaker at our Criminal Justice Theory in Practice 300 class broke a stereotype on how a Chief of a desired division within the police department should look like or behaves. A Chief of Patrol, Terence Monahan, shared stories from his life since he applied for the law enforcement profession.

“My biggest accomplishment was to be a district commander. Out of 3,500 people there are only 22 district commanders, and I was one of them.” Stuart Shaver, Illinois State Police officer said during an interview. The majority of people will choose the career that they can get a good income in, even though they don’t like that job, but for Shaver he got the career that he likes and a great income for his family. This occupation is not easy, many cases of crimes and accidents are involved in this job along with the duty to help and keep the peace within the community. A great strength and effort are needed in order to do this job, and Shaver never gives up on it, instead he loves it and see it as a part of his life. Shaver loves his job because he likes to protect and help people who are in need and his

I have learned many things from our officer from the Chicago Police Department. Officer Perez has taught us about smoking, that concept has may facts on why you shouldn't smoke. Also Officer Perez taught us how to have courage. Also he has taught us what is the difference on what is demanding,confidence,and being unsure. Then Officer Perez taught us about the important topic, bullying , he showed us video on bullying and that bullying can be very serious. And there are many facts about , bullying, smoking, and confidence.

Ever since a little kid I had the dreams of becoming a Police Officer. My police career began with the Amtrak Police Department on August 30, 2001. During my years with APD I held many positions, I was an explosive patrol K-9 handler, a criminal Investigator, and I am currently Sergeant in the Training Unit. I have completed training for and am a Field Training officer, Peer Support officer and Community Relations officer. I have received many Officer of the month awards and in 2012 was awarded Officer of the Year. I have assisted in the creation and am a Chairman of the Mid-Atlantic North Safety Committee and the National Safety Committee. During my career with the Amtrak Police Department I have been awarded two lifesaving awards for

Compassion is sympathizing with others and helping them with the pain or suffering that they might be going through. I can show compassion as a member of the student council by encouraging a fellow classmate in gym class or in sports that may not have the confidence they need to get better and helping them through that. I can also show compassion by helping a classmate that may be confused by homework and work them through the part that they do not understand instead of ignoring them because it is not my problem. Trust and Zeal are two pivotal factors that make a leader respected and productive. A leader that you can not trust is a pointless leader that should not have been made a leader in the first place. If you can not trust a leader then how do you expect him to have any other virtues especially some of the ones that I have named above that require trust. People can trust me as a officer of the student council because I am a man of my word and I do not take promises lightly. I fully believe that the only way to gain trust is through getting things done on time and efficiently and the only way to do that is by being zealous. The definition of Zeal is having great energy or enthusiasm toward completing an objective. A leader with Zeal like myself is a force to be reckoned with. I can be a zealous leader because every promise I make, I intend to keep and work towards the final product to the best of my ability until the objective is reached because this is a brotherhood and I will fight for each and everyone of my brothers to have their say because that is what I will be for them a voice that they can depend

It will also show their current hiring trends and what hiring practices they have that are successful or not successful. The paper will also go over the different methods departments use to train their new officers and their values.

On 10/10/16 Officer Brown was the guest speaker for the YMCA Teen Achievers program at the Seminole High School site. There Officer Brown spoke to students about what it is like to working in law enforcement and how citizens and police officers can have positive interactions with one another. Officer Brown’s commitment to educating the youth of our community is continuing in the departments effort to building stronger police and citizens relationships within our community.

My mother always told me, ‘When the going gets tough, the tough get going.’ When times get rough it is important to not waste time sitting in self-pity, instead you need to take charge and change things for the better. I believe that being a good leader does not wait around just hoping, instead they make things happen. There are many elements that I believe make a good leader, but just being genuine and passionate towards a cause is what I believe is most important.

There are few professions in the United States that are entrusted with protecting society’s safety and system of laws that have been established throughout the course of American history. One of those professions is that of a police officer. It is an admirable calling for an individual to deal with criminals and place themselves in harm’s way on a daily basis. It is certainly not a job that can be done by everyone and

In the book, Emotionally Intelligent Leadership, the author discusses that to be a leader you must be able collaborate, and effectively work with others (Shankman). Being a leader isn’t a one-man show. You must be able to accept help from others, and be willing to listen to and understand your peer’s thoughts and feelings (Shankman). I related this topic back to when I used to play soccer in high school.

During my government observation project, I went for a ride-along with the Alameda Police Department (as permitted by you) and the Dry Creek Joint Elementary Board Meeting. Through the ride-along with the Alameda Police, I was able to watch Officer Woulfe assist the community in multiple different ways. First we responded to a dine and dash call at a local restaurant. We arrived late to the scene so there was no resolution. Officer Woulfe informed me that we would be going back to the station to deal with a hit and run. At first I got worried that I would only see a lot of paperwork, but there was a detour to pick up a regular meth user that had warrants out for his arrest. I got to see an arrest and the booking process. We later responded to a domestic violence report and were even flagged down on the streets by a family looking for their suicidal father. I noticed that there were many codes and procedures to a police officer’s job. They also have to be prepared to deal with an array of situations. Officer Woulfe also told me that the way an officer treats/ talks to people on the job, the more compliant people will be. I learned that police officers have a lot more responsibility than most people might realize. We did help the community and bring people to

Every student here at Dalton State is working toward a goal, which is to graduate and start a career in a specific job they have dreamed of doing. My goal is to graduate and start a career in law enforcement. Specifically, I hope to start a career in law enforcement with the Dalton city police department. As long as I can remember, I have always been amazed at what police officers do. I have always thought of police officers being a very special group of people who have taken an oath to serve and protect their community that they dearly love. To me, police officers are people who are willing to do a job that strides to make their community a better place for citizens, even though the job can become more dangerous than most people would expect

The ability to listen well is an important tool for understanding others. Sadly, very few people know how to listen well. In fact, most people can think of only one or two good listeners in their lives. Listening is not simply agreeing - it is much more. Good listeners are able to better understand and respond to others, complete assignments accurately, settle disagreements before they escalate, and establish rapport with difficult people.

Many believe listening skills are a necessity to being successful. It’s said that god gave us two ears so we can listen twice as much as we talk, and leaders should follow this saying so they do not miss any important information (Rai).
