Who’s the Boss (Room 2B)

23 Feb 18
8:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Tracks: Company Officer Development

This class introduces and reviews some basic leadership models and theories. The intent of the session is to figure out what leadership is and how we can implement it. The class will focus on topics such as servant leadership, situational leadership, the leadership continuum and the Johari Window. Once these concepts are digested, the instructor will then take the “Buddy to Boss” (Chase Sargent) concept into the fire station to look at crew continuity, public perception and customer service interactions. The instructor will also discuss station pranks, hazing and poor behavior through fire service videos and case studies.
