(attend both classes for $125.00; class number: 90329)
Gordon has presented at similar programs in the past – and will open his program with some in depth discussion on the study of tragedy – and what really causes things to end up going bad. He will identify for the attendees the huge difference between “proximate” cause and “root” cause – and why this is so critical if we are going to build appropriate systems to prevent similar type tragedies.
Mr. Graham will then transition into other topical areas:
- Risk Management and Public Safety
- “The Seven Rules of Admiral Hyman Rickover”
- “Ten Families of Risk” that law enforcement leaders face
The presenter of this action packed seminar is Mr. Gordon Graham, President of Lexipol, and a nationally recognized 33-year veteran (retired) of California Law Enforcement, a practicing attorney with a background and formal education as a risk manager.
By the end of the program, the attentive attendee will be able to:
- Identify potential problems lying in wait in his/her respective agency.
- Develop some control measures to address these problems.
- Enhance the feedback loop to prevent future similar problems from occurring.
- Leave the program with an expanded level of knowledge regarding “real” risk management and how it applies to law enforcement in Wisconsin.
