What The Heck Now, Recruit!?
Critical thinking is a critical skill for cops. How do we awaken recruits to visualize what they’re going to do when things don’t go as planned? Val Van Brocklin shares a “teachable moment.”
“You saw what happened with Corporal Spitzer. Prepare for that to happen to you. Prepare for the woman to go to your supervisor and cry police brutality. Did Corporal Spitzer give me those bruises?"
Beautiful awakenings start happening amongst the recruits. “No, ma’am.” “You did it to yourself, ma’am.” “You caused your bruises.”
Awakenings – the sequel.
Coming soon – to a community near me – will be these recruits. May their Academy and FTO awakenings be lasting. May those of us who train them keep finding teachable moments.
