Reviews… a must-read for anyone serious about exploring leadership in policing and creating positive paradigm shifts within police organizations …. This content can save an officer's career, improve overall effectiveness and efficiency within a department, and build community trust and relations - even in minority communities, where typically, trust is lowest and relations are most strained. … very progressive in its discussion of typically sensitive topics.… -Major Randy Hopkins Executive Officer, Administration Bureau Kansas City, Missouri, Police Department This important and even unsettling book is a clarion call to rethink how the police serve the public. -Dr. Gary Armstrong Professor of Political Science William Jewell College Liberty, Missouri Colwell and Huth have struck a chord of innovation and crispness which will assuredly provide a working framework for police authorities as they engage the challenges of policing dynamic communities of the twenty-first century. -Michael Birzer Director and Associate Professor School of Community Affairs Wichita State University The concepts of integrity, courage, and unconditional respect for all are critical elements in the development of law enforcement professionals, yet they reflect a gap in many of today's law enforcement training programs. This book is a positive step towards filling that gap. -Brian Willis, President, Winning Mind Training This book inspired me; all Americans should read it. - Debra Sheffer, Ph.D. Associate Professor, History Chair, University Assessment Committee Park University Colwell and Huth seek nothing less than to effect a transformation of how we educate and train police officers. Their argument is well grounded, well supported, and compelling. This will be a classic in leadership education for first responders and any who seek to serve and protect. -Colonel Gregory Fontenot, U.S. Army (Retired) Former Director of the School of Advanced Military Studies Director of the University of Foreign Military Studies Coauthor of On Point: The US Army in Operation Iraqi Freedom Colwell and Huth present us with an amalgam of theory, best practices, and sound advice that if followed, will lead us down the path of transformation. We would do well to follow the map that they have provided for us. -Chief Gregory P. Mills Director of Public Safety Riverside, Missouri I have undergone a training regimen this year that includes the precepts taught in this text, and I approve of it without reservation. This attitudinal recognition will make you a better police officer and a safer one. Every enlightened law officer should read this book and then live it. -Col. Hugh L. Mills Jr. (U.S. Army Ret.) Sheriff's Office Jackson County, Missouri Co-Author, Low Level Hell: A Scout Pilot in the Big Red One The authors offer a thorough assessment of the law enforcement community and the underlying problems that impede career excellence. Their provocative exploration into the human psyche encourages officers to more completely understand themselves, all the while providing empirical data that link this self-awareness to officer safety. -Kay White, MS, Forensic Psychology Associates Psychologist for the Kansas City Missouri Police Department … a courageous book that will, for those of us who courageously embrace its message, forever change the way we do police work for the better. … For those who have fallen into the trap of discouragement and cynicism, it will show us the way out of that darkness and renew our belief in the fact that, Unleashing the Power of Unconditional Respect: Transforming Law Enforcement and Police Training offers idealism and hope in an era missing both, and pushes TRUE courage in a profession that now desperately needs it. The concept of unconditional respect is the foundation of the service mindset that makes this profession more of a calling than a career, and is at the core of not only our life's work, but our country's most basic tenet - that being EVERYONE matters. We have entered a time in which the benefit of the doubt that officers used to take for granted has passed. Much of that can be traced to the way we have treated those we no longer respect. Making this book mandatory reading at every level would be a giant step toward realigning our core value compass and perhaps starting the credibility pendulum swinging back in the other direction. I strongly endorse the book and message that it sends, and hope for the sake of the profession that the word gets out. - Major Steve Ijames (ret.), Use of Force and Tactical Consultant to The International Association of Chiefs of Police, U.S. Department of State, and numerous law enforcement agencies around the world Much has been written about community policing, but nothing I have read expresses its essence as succinctly as Unleashing the Power of Unconditional Respect. It is an inspirational book of surpassing moral clarity that will challenge all who read it to be better than they are, on and off the job. A must-read not only for all in law enforcement, but for anyone who aspires to real personal and professional growth. - Alexis Artwohl, Ph.D., Tucson, Arizona and co-author of Deadly Force EncountersColwell and Huth have written a book that deals with the very foundation not just of communication, but of civil society. Their careful thought, lifetimes of service, and insightful contribution will undoubtedly change the world for the better. - Joseph Grenny, New York Times bestselling co-author of Influencer: The Power to Change AnythingThis groundbreaking work re-centers law enforcement and all professions on the reason we serve. This is the defining work on finding courage in the heart to produce courage in the force. I will use this amazing book at West Point, in corporations and in government. Colwell and Huth merit genuine gratitude for giving us the axiom for the ages: the profession of law enforcement requires a personal anima that sees all people as people, and is rooted in integrity, buttressed by courage, and expressed as unconditional respect for all people. - Gus Lee, Chair of Character Development, U.S. Military Academy, West Point; Chief Learning Officer, Integware and author of Courage: The Backbone of Leadership… a must-read for anyone serious about exploring leadership in policing and creating positive paradigm shifts within police organizations ….
