This program is an interactive group led discussion about the challenges facing newly promoted and aspiring company officers during the transition of moving from the jump seat to the front seat. The view from the front seat offers quite a different perspective than the jump seat. As an officer, you are now responsible for not only your own safety, but those who work with you. You will be forced to make decisions based on your experience while maintaining the mission and values of your organization. This class will primarily focus on the interpersonal skills and challenges associated with being an officer. As an officer, your words now carry weight. You are looked upon as the leader, boss, friend, mentor and coach… are you prepared for this responsibility? Have you had the proper training in personnel counseling and conflict resolution? This class will help you with the necessary knowledge, skills and abilities to overcome the challenges of being a new officer. The presenters will discuss leadership traits and characteristics; developing incident action plans; incident and LODD reviews; round table discussions, career development and succession planning. Scenario based training and role playing will be used to demonstrate points. A questions and answer session will close out the program.
