                Leadership
                We approach this block with the development of leading
                from anywhere with the organization, with particular
                emphasis placed on transformational leadership.
                Motivation and Achievement
                This block of instruction is focused on both subordinate
                and self motivation. During this instruction, students must
                motivate themselves and each other to accomplish goals
                and overcome unique obstacles.

                Project Management
                Project management skills allow the manager to logically
                identify law enforcement issues, gather and analyze
                information regarding them and develop a team project
                response to address the problems.
