CPD Supervisors receive FBI Trilogy Award

In 2018, Uniform Patrol Cpl. Tyler McClure and Cpl. Jose Souto attended the FBI - Law Enforcement Executive Development Association’s (LEEDA) Supervisor Leadership Institute, Command Leadership Institute, and Executive Leadership Institute programs. 

During the course of their studies, Cpl. McClure and Cpl. Souto engaged in topics to include personality diagnostics, leadership case studies, mentoring, developing your people, performance management, risk management, and credibility.  In addition, they were involved in such areas as command discipline and liability, dealing with problem employees and leading change within an organization.  Furthermore, both Corporals engaged in other studies such as generational leadership, paradigms and change objectives, power and influence, transactional and transformational leadership and the future of law enforcement.

Cpl. McClure and Cpl. Souto recently completed this intense program and was awarded the FBI - LEEDA Trilogy Award and was recognized for this very important accomplishment during last night’s City Council Meeting.   

Police Chief Mark J. Mitchell stated, “I am extremely proud of these supervisors for their hard work and the commitment they dedicated into finishing such a very important training program.  All of our employees are vital to the success of this organization, so we must invest in their career development, which not only improves their skill sets but also continues to develop our department into a premier professional agency that supports our employees and the community we serve.”
