This course guides supervisors in identifying internal stress factors, implementing fear inoculation, and fostering adaptive thinking under pressure. Effective performance conversations are also emphasized to promote continuous growth and resilience. Designed for law enforcement supervisors and leaders, this session focuses on understanding the ‘why’ behind actions to help strengthen teams and foster community trust.
