The Communication Skills
Tutorial for Police Officers
-
…accelerating the communication mastery process.
Are you being
totally open and
honest with your chief?
Is your supervisor failing to effect a transformation
of your police department in part because you have yet to make a
commitment to telling the
truth to him/her and all department personnel?
Are you willing to look at the possibility that
you could transform your police department so that it has the reputation of operating
from impeccable, unquestionable, integrity—setting
the standards for the community?
If you know that the way in which you communicate verbally
and nonverbally (especially your silence) is keeping others
stuck then this tutorial is
for you.
Overview
|
|
|
 |
| > Asking questions |
|
Just as there is a way to ask
a question that causes someone
to shut down, withhold, or deceive you, so too is it
possible to create space for communication to take place,
for the
truth to be told. |
| > Barriers |
|
Most people have barriers to communicating comfortably with
police. They find they have absolutely no choice but to mirror
an officer's communication skills; often they find themselves
reacting, relating with an officer, exactly the way the
officer is unconsciously treating them. An officer with a
well developed "courteous act" will eventually trigger
another's
dramatized upset. Such an officer is in need of considerable
coaching. |
