Over the past year, Uniform Patrol Sergeant Mary Turner attended the FBI- Law Enforcement Executive Development Association’s (LEEDA) Supervisor Leadership Institute, Command Leadership Institute and Executive Leadership Institute program.
During the course of her studies, Sgt. Turner engaged in topics to include personality diagnostics, leadership case studies, mentoring, developing your people, performance management, risk management and credibility. In addition, she was involved in such areas as command discipline and liability, dealing with problem employees and leading change within an organization. Furthermore, the Sergeant 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.
Sergeant Turner recently completed this intense program and has been 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 Sergeant Turner for the hard work and commitment she 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.”
