Course description
The primary objective of the Daniels College of Business Public Safety Leadership Development program is to further develop public safety emerging leaders in our local communities. Participants will gain insight into their personal style, capabilities, strengths, and weaknesses and in turn understand their team’s capabilities, strengths, and weaknesses. Emphasis will be placed on developing leaders and understanding team dynamics.
Collaboratively built in 2008 and fine-tuned by input from multiple agencies, this program combines world-class faculty with personal assessments, leadership exercises, analytical assignments, and challenging activities to provide a life-changing experience. The PSLD program was reviewed by the Colorado Peace Officer Standards and Training Office and there are funding options available for small and remote agencies through POST.

Course delivery details
This program compresses the very best content and resources into five days of immersive learning. The first session takes place at The Nature Place, where participants will be removed from their day-to-day lives and immersed in the program. The Nature Place is a comfortable mountain retreat and conference center located on a 6,000 acre privately owned ranch, one hour west of Colorado Springs. Visit www.thenatureplace.net for more information. Sessions 2 and 3 will be either virtual (fall) or in-person (winter and spring, as University policies allow). These sessions include both individual participation and group/team work. The dates and assignments are strategically spaced to allow participants to apply what they have learned and to return to the team with stories of success and insightful questions, further customizing the program as it progresses. The final session, which occurs on site, includes a graduation ceremony where supervisors and leadership teams are invited to attend.
