Dare To Be Great Leadership: Strategies to Help Frontline Leaders Build and Sustain a Culture of Leading, Learning and Excellence

Frontline supervisors (Lieutenants, Sergeants, Corporals and FTOs) are in arguably the most influential leadership positions in any organization. Frontline supervisors and the people they lead make up the vast majority of the employees in most organizations. They are the face and the future of the organization. They are also the foundation of the organization. Without a strong foundation structures and organizations are at risk of collapsing.  

This two-day workshop addresses key strategies for building a culture of leading, learning, and excellence at the foundational level of your organization. This program combines the core elements of Dare to Be Great: Strategies for Creating a Culture of Leading and Dare To Be Great Leadership 2.0: Continuing the Journey of Building a Culture of Leading, Learning and Excellence into a two day workshop focused on frontline leaders. For law enforcement agencies Field Training Officer’s are frontline supervisors, yet they often receive little or no leadership training.
