The importance of the individual officer being proactive when it comes to his/her emotional intelligence. The need for police agencies to incorporate EAP services as a natural response to a culture that expects police to perform multi-function to prevent burn-out and attrition. — Jimmie
The suggested readings and references by Dr. Magny are extremely helpful. — Jillian
The factors that he addressed such as not recognizing individual’s talents or realizing that the person with all the knowledge is leaving. Both of these things happened to me and many others, where you found yourself stuck in a role and could not venture out. I was also a person who had the only working knowledge of a critical unit detective and no one valued it enough to learn it before I left. After I left, I have been called numerous times (in retirement) to figure out/help out clueless management. — KIMBERLY

This speaker was awesome. Everything he said, anyone in law enforcement could relate. Many of us have thought it, but he said it out loud…which is what we need.

He is a very good speaker! — Susan

Just acknowledging the issue was a great thing! I appreciate that so much of this goes on in traditional policing roles and departments, but it also happens in the private and non-profit sectors where sadly so many in leadership have no apparent understanding of policing and the inherent issues. Including some discussion about those circumstances and how to work well with those who don’t know what they don’t know would be so appreciated. Thank you! — Valerie
In all professions, self-care has been prominent and utilized actively. Self-care in policing is so important with positive self-talk, visualization, seeking support, self awareness, and mental toughness. These few steps everyday are vital to the resiliency and fortitude of police officers to gird themselves when they are hit with challenging times on or off-duty. Thank you Dr. Magny for an excellent training. — Weena
