  • Yes, it's Response Policing Week! Forces, the College, NPCC, and Chief Officers have been giving their warm words. But actions speak louder! So in this FREE episode, I discuss the essence of response policing, recap on yesterday's WeCops discussion, share my own experience, and provide some important leadership lessons to support the great police leadership response cops want, inspired by a Twitter thread by the influential police leader, 'JJ Sharpers'. I hope you enjoy the episode and find the insights useful.

  • On my recent visit to Sussex Police, I asked officers there "What makes a good leader?". In this FREE episode (accessible to subscribers first) I share the findings and the completely new leadership framework I created from the dozens of Post-it notes placed in a jar.

    I call it the Sussex Leadership Framework (SLF). Read more about it and a visual overview in my associated blog, but for now I hope you enjoy the episode!

  • The College of Policing recently released a "new" CVF for 2024. But is it really all that different?

  • Last week I was invited by Sussex Police Federation to present at their officer roadshow / engagement event.

    Many aspiring officers approached my stall and we had some good discussions about their views and concerns about promotion, leadership, and policing generally. In this debrief, I share some of those insights, my experiences of the event, and perspectives on what Sussex Police Federation are doing for their members.

    I'll be posting a write-up on my policepromotion.blog soon about this event, the interview, and a question I asked all attendees, but for now, grab a coffee, sit back, and enjoy the show! PS. My podcasts aren't scripted and as such made a couple of bloopers... I'm sure you know what I meant, but to make it a little fun first to spot them and email me gets a free Interview Success guide worth £59!

  • Last week I had the pleasure of interviewing Chris Thompson, Treasurer and Dep Secretary of Sussex Police Federation. This followed an exciting engagement event they ran for officers at Sussex Police.

    It was a really interesting perspective speaking to the Federation about support for officers, including shining a light on some innovative practices here in Sussex Police. Pay and morale survey, national and local Federation issues, the role of the Federation, professional standards, supporting officers to achieve success, training, scrutiny of officers, the fairness of promotion, their new Sussex Fed magazine, and more.

    I'd like to thank Chris again for spending the time on this informative discussion. I'll be posting a write-up on my policepromotion.blog soon about this event, the interview, and a question I asked all attendees, but for now, grab a coffee, sit back, and enjoy the show!

  • I've been busy in recent months, but am now proud to share with you the fruits of my intensive labour!

    So this is just a quick episode summarising the features and benefits of my BRAND NEW police promotion masterclass, which focuses on 'what works' in promotion and leadership.

    You can download your copy securely from my site:

    www.ranksuccess.co.uk

    Check out my YouTube channel for the trailer, extended highlights, and outtakes videos all published recently.

  • This week I had the privilege of interviewing Acting Chief Constable of Devon and Cornwall Police, Jim Colwell. Jim has been standing in as Chief Constable for DCP since July 2023, stepping up to the position following the suspension of Will Kerr. And as another inspiring police senior leader, he doesn't disappoint, with this exclusive discussion providing valuable learning for aspiring police leaders everywhere.

    A lot of ground is covered in the 40 minutes, including Jim's proudest moments in policing, advice for aspiring officers, views on compassion and other emerging values in policing, the step up to Superintendent, and much more. He also answers my question about what the 'Holy Grail' of police promotion might be.

    I'd like to thank Jim again for sparing some time from his busy schedule. I'll be posting a write-up on my policepromotion.blog soon, but for now, grab a coffee, sit back, and enjoy the show!

    As with all my interviews, this episode is ENTIRELY FREE for all, all the time. But if you want to be first to access my other podcasts, and get exclusive regular premium episodes, please consider becoming a subscriber today for just £4.99 per month.

  • What's the FAIREST police promotion process of the land? Interviews? Applications? Job performance? Inspired by commentary on police promotion processes recently by the Chief Constable of Dyfed-Powys Police, I discuss the zeitgeist of police promotion processes. In this FREE episode (open first to subscribers), I'll cover some common issues and discuss what it means for you as an aspiring police leader.

    Promotion processes are topical at the moment (plus ca change!), in light of the recent Police Federation report on pay and morale (including perspectives on promotion and CPD), along with NPPF to SIPP changes on the horizon. So I hope you enjoy the content and I extend an invite out for a podcast interview to Dyfed-Powys or indeed Chief Officers elsewhere if you'd like to give your views on this issue - just get in touch to arrange at your convenience!

  • Officers moving to Australia: It's the talk of the town at the moment in policing. Both in terms of how disgruntled cops are handing in their warrant cards in droves, while Australian police forces are capitalising on the opportunity to poach good officers with a move overseas.

    So in this FREE episode (open first to subscribers) of Season 4, it's timely I cover this issue, because Australian forces are currently hosting engagement sessions around the country to try and entice UK officers and their families. Certainly worth a listen if you're interested in this topic, or even interested in making the move!

    Here's my related blog comparing officer salary, cost of living, and other factors between here and Down Under...

  • For Episode 6 of my Year of the Dragon season, I had the pleasure of interviewing Darren Lockley, a retired Superintendent. This podcast is another inspiring interview for aspiring officers.

    We cover a lot of ground between his start in policing just after ‘Life on Mars’ :-) through to his fresh new start outside of policing as a senior manager more recently and after a few years enjoying retirement.

    Lots of insights and tips for you to listen in on, as we chat about his career experience in policing, his promotion journey through the ranks, approach to CPD, and lots more.

    I hope you enjoy this chat on police leadership and development. Apologies for the slight background noise, it was a windy day and this isn't Joe Rogan Towers! Feel free to post your thoughts in the podcast notes.

  • For S4E3, I had the privilege of interviewing former Assistant Chief Constable of Devon and Cornwall Police, Paul Davies.

    I asked him a range of questions on policing and leadership, to which his responses are insightful and fascinating. We cover a range of subjects, with loads of lessons for aspiring police leaders everywhere, whether you seek promotion or lateral career development. Topics include the promotion process, his own failure in promotion and what he learned, CPD, leadership styles, and controversial matters like the politicisation of policing.

    You won't regret listening to this jam-pack hour of incredible insights, and it's quality CPD if you're aspiring to a higher rank in policing. I'd like to thank Paul again for making the time to share his insights on police promotion and leadership with you. I'll post a blog in the usual place (policepromotion.blog) as a follow-up with my reflections and key highlights soon. For now, enjoy this audio and make sure you have a pen to hand!

I share insights about the common mistake officers make when going for promotion, plus example experiences of others which may resonate and inspire you to action in 2024.

  • In S3E21, I'm once again joined and interviewed by my friend Adrian and we get our teeth stuck into the new Sergeant and Inspector Progression and Promotion (SIPP) process. This follows on from my recent blog on the matter (link below).

    We discuss the ins and outs of SIPP, the apparent consultation (or lack of!) to date, the timelines, prospects for the legal exam, diversity and inclusion issues, leadership qualifications, CPD and much more. We also review feedback and comments people left on my Twitter and Linked In pages on SIPP. I hope you find it interesting and informative! Please share your views below, or send in your recorded voice file to feature on a future episode!

  • Welcome to yet another free police promotion podcast episode! In S3E16, I share my exclusive interview with another inspiring police leader, ACC Katy Barrow-Grint of Thames Valley Police. This is another with so many policing and leadership gems you won't want to miss! Love Island and golden toilets get a mention, but the main topics you'll appreciate focus around women in leadership, investigation standards, VAWG, and much more relevant to your police leadership career.

    I'd like to thank Katy again for sparing some time from her busy schedule. I'll be posting a write-up on my policepromotion.blog soon, but for now, grab a coffee, sit back, and enjoy the show!

  • For S3E12, I once again invited my friend Adrian to ask me some questions on police promotion and leadership matters. In this one we discuss coaching and mentoring. The initial question was about the stigma associated with it among the Federated ranks, but a lot more ground is covered than that. I hope you enjoy!

  • For S3E9, I'm trying a new format. I've been around the country interviewing Chief Constables and others for their perspectives on police leadership and promotion. In this interview, I turn the questions on myself! I invite my good friend Adrian to ask me questions of interest to police officers and promotion candidates alike, as a new perspective for your CPD. In this episode, we only got through one question: "Why is promotion unfair?" We did have others lined up, but will save them for another time seeing as this one itself took 45 mins to explore! I hope you enjoy this new format, let me know what you think by commenting or leaving your own voice note.
