Matt Hamby Case Study

I have assisted with the growth of this unit in mission capabilities and personnel to include the integration of the Total Force Initiative. Embracing our counterparts and welcoming them into our unit has provided an opportunity for an exchange of cultures and perspectives. This incorporation has provided me a chance to improve my leadership skills and ensure a viable future for Kingsley

Raymond Kelly is a great role model and leader to follow for my career field

The International Association of Chiefs of Police Research Center Board of executives, Smaller Law Enforcement Agencies Technical Assistance Program developed a New Police Chief Mentoring Project (IACP, 2013). Supported by the Bureau of Justice Assistance, U.S. Department of Justice, the focus is to make available official support to newer law enforcement leaders in the first three years of appointment, who are serving in smaller populations less than 50,000 citizens. As cities expand geographically and demographically, police departments face additional challenges determining efficient and effective ways to make use of officers and resources (Roberts, 2000).

“The Doylestown community is fortunate to have a highly qualified and skilled police force,” Councilman Tony Lindeman said. “Our previous police chief hired quality officers and was a true leader in that he planned for succession by making sure his staff was properly trained and prepared to move to the next level. So, when Chief Dressler decided to move on, the village council was able to select the next police chief from within the highly trained and skilled Doylestown Police Department.”

"I'm extremely proud of the role Hanscom plays in the Patriots Day festivities, like at this morning's parade they were many honor guard units marching but ours led the parade, as their commander its very humbling and gratifying,"

As Chief of Evanston Police, Richard Eddington serves a very vital role in the community. He’s spent approximately forty years in law enforcement and was named Chief of Evanston Police in 2007. As Chief, his main jobs are to supervise and send out personnel, accomplish the goals and objectives the Department sets, and oversee the overall performance of respective divisions of the Department. On top of all of this, he also has many important tasks that he accomplishes; to name a few, he helps better the organization, adheres to the needs of the community, strengthens the productivity of the Department as a whole, and many more. Chief Eddington believes the unique way that Evanston police and the community are a “Partnership” is a very important part of the job of police officers, saying their “programs and services have been designed to reach out, connect, and work with the community.” He is a firm believer that this

The city of Dallas’ Police Department (PD) current chief has been an officer since 1983 and chief since the spring of 2010, and he brought qualifications and experience with him. According to his Dallas PD bio (2013),

Remaining an active member in the NYPD, McDonald would spend the next 30 years speaking and mentoring young NYPD officers during roll call, attending every single brothers and sisters in blue graduation ceremonies and funerals.

Thank you for giving me the privilege to serve as a Chief of police for West Mahanoy Township. It is with great regret that I send you this letter of resignation.

1. A single catastrophic event, often followed by civil liability litigation, leads to the chief of police being replaced (Swanson, 2012, pg. 650). This forces changes because it addresses a single incident and forces change. A good example of this would be the failure to adequately respond to an incident. This can be seen when an incident unarmed person is killed by the police. This can be a result of inadequate training or a trigger happy force. None the less the reason, the

I was well positioned to execute the duties as Maintenance Control Safe for Flight Chief through two arduous detachments and work up cycles. I surpassed all expectations up and down my chain of command and was awarded appropriately for my leadership actions. I thrive on the opportunities to lead while providing mentorship and guidance to Sailors and Marines alike.

As I assume command of the 187th Airlift Squadron this weekend, my guarantee to all of you is the same guarantee I gave when I first signed on. That is, I will show up to work in a three point stance every day; mo-tivated and ready to move the ball down the field as part of this team. I’ve got big shoes to fill and truly stand on the shoulders of giants who have previously led this squadron. I am honored to serve you all in this capacity and thank you all for

I was invited to apply for this position and given my background and experience, it was determined that I would bring a lot to the board. I have always had an interest in Public Service not only as a wife (both fire & police), my current professional role is focused on information and cyber security which impacts all agencies (police, fire, EMS, clinical, etc..) working in departments where I saw firsthand the workings of the public service system has had a profound impact on my life. In addition, I believe my later experiences with public budgeting, public unions, personnel management and extensive incident command training allows me to understand and be helpful as similar issues arise at SACFD.

Through its partnership with the community, it will continue to provide innovative, effective, and efficient services with pride and dedication…. We are dedicated to a philosophy of policing which commits us to a working partnership in our community and to proactively address those issues which can enhance its quality of life” (Sheingold, n.d.)
