What is the "Leadership Gap"? In law enforcement and public safety, the Leadership Gap is a phenomenon that reflects the failure of leaders to build enough commitment and buy-in from those they lead to institute change and achieve planned outcomes. The presence of a Leadership Gap is indicative of an organization whose leadership is having difficulty motivating and inspiring their colleagues to adopt challenging leadership decisions—some of which may be unpopular or controversial. Some of these decisions can be described as transformational and are necessary to successfully navigate the countless and complex law enforcement and public safety scenarios that are encountered by today’s leaders. Fortunately, the collection of leadership strategies contained in this book have been curated to help leaders identify existing leadership gaps in their organizations and take steps to reduce their size and impact for the benefit of their colleagues and communities. Each chapter reveals a decisive compilation of leadership strategies that are proven, practical, purposeful, and evidence-based and supported by professional experience and academia. These strategies are conveyed through leadership methods, activities, opportunities, attributes, styles, and perspectives, helping readers to build greater commitment and buy-in from those they lead, when and where it matters the most—at the frontlines of their organization.
