Credible Leadership I is the first leg of an educational journey designed to provide a comprehensive introduction to leadership, ethics, character, supervision, communication and self-development.

Learn how your actions and your organizational mission must align with that definition. This curriculum introduces the concept of “Leading Down and Managing Up”, through a detailed summary of the best-selling book, “It’s Your Ship: Management Techniques from the Best Damn Ship in the Navy”, by Captain D. Michael Abrashoff.

Take a comprehensive look at leadership and ethics. Identify the most common ethical dilemmas in law enforcement and how they destroy public trust and individual careers.
