Officers of all ranks experience stress on the job. Issues regarding shift work, balancing family needs, financial decisions, and operating in the rule-bound, yet highly discretionary, world of policing require officers to develop a skill set that few academies prepare them to use, let alone know about. An experienced law enforcement manager and educator will provide students with a number of ways to better cope with both the "normal" challenges of the job and the acute occurrences which can produce high levels of stress. Personal leadership approaches are emphasized throughout this one day course and officers will have a chance to consider better ways to make decisions, including the following: - Compassion fatigue - How the dynamics of control and trust can change attitudes - Recognizing why officers have special communication needs - Overcoming the damaging effects of "rule bound" and stoic approaches to the job - Recognizing symptoms of stress and how they differ from other jobs - Developing an action plan based on a personal vision beyond the job - Overcoming the "peaks and valleys" of unhealthy career investment - What goes wrong: Alcohol, divorce, isolation, suicide and depression This course has been certified by the Illinois Law Enforcement Training and Standards Board and is not reimbursable by the ILETSB.
