Guardians and Warriors: Seeking Balance
With law enforcement professionals today under increasing amounts of scrutiny in an already dangerous profession, the right mindset is key in managing everyday situations.

This course focuses on how to balance these two mindsets in order to maintain public trust, perform your duties at a high-level, and prevent crime and disorder.
Numerous case studies, scientific research, statistics, and an array of videos of real-life situations are utilized to offer training scenarios that assist with channeling both the warrior and guardian mindsets and how they are applied to a wide range of circumstances.
This course provides an overview of Sir Robert Peels Nine Principles of Policing and how they tie into the guardian and warrior mindsets. It aims to provide a better understanding of how these mindsets can be mutually exclusive and how effective training can be used to increase public trust. It also explores the phrase Guardian Heart, Warrior Spirit and the training aspects of knowing when to switch from one mindset to the other.
