Why Should We Change? We've Always Done It This Way!
Upper managements most famous pathetic words of an excuse!
Especially by those who have no idea on technology and are not willing to even listen.
Some law enforcement agencies are a perfect example, it is like they have those words embedded in their DNA!
Policing is not working like it should, staffing is being depleted due to senseless budget cuts, promoted individuals are in positions that they should never have been promoted to and crime rises.
The criminals in their arrogant way, have it all together because they know the strong arm of the law is weaker than ever.
Communications and the sharing of vital information is placing officers in harm's way. We have changed that!
People say that the phrase “This is how we’ve always done it” contains the seven most expensive words in business. In most cases, that’s absolutely true.
We know that past success is no guarantee for the future, especially when the only constant is the changes. What is this 'Fear Factor Syndrome'?
That though doesn’t stop many workplaces from being completely resistant to new ideas. And, if you’re currently stuck in this sort of inner culture, you know how frustrating it can be and is!
Whether your office is full of people who have worked there for 30 years or you’re managed by a supervisor who firmly believes there’s no better way to do things, your brilliant suggestions for improvement and change are constantly shut down—or worse, completely ignored.
Get the picture or is it right before your eyes?
It doesn’t matter if you want to restructure an entire department or simply swap out the brand of coffee in the break room.
In your company’s eyes, all change is bad.
So, what exactly can you do if your employer immediately scoffs at the idea of tweaking anything—aside from just complaining about it?
In law enforcement globally, officers are leaving, but you don't have to. You joined with a strong belief in protecting and serving your community, that can continue if you confront the issues and the people who are the roadblocks.
Law enforcement agencies are a business and like any corporation, your success defines you. if the picture is not rosy, then you make a change instead of plodding along and failing your own department and in your customer's eyes.
I understand the union approach and disagree in the manner of out of touch union representatives believe they are the only way. The days of 'I'm Alright Jack' union stance are gone.
Technology is not knocking at the door, it has pushed past and making a major difference for those that have embraced change.
Those joining the police forces of the world especially those in the last eight years understand the 'finger and thumb' technology. How it is making the difference.
Oh, those that believe they have to 'invent it' to really work are truly mistaken.
Enterprise, those who are 'outsiders' have a lot to offer and have the 'balls' to invest their own time, effort and money to prove it. Whilst inner management just picks up a paycheck which in many cases is a waste of good funds as they have no real invested interest, except the monthly salary.
Bitter? Far from, we enjoy the challenge and have the passion and where-with-all to succeed. The one thing inept people cannot stand is being called out with proven results. Hope you are listening and grunting under your breath. We and your colleagues know who you are and will change you, your ways and the outdated cultural attitude.
What are you going to do, remove us, annihilate the power of change?
I think not, sorry I know you will not, there are too many who have changed sides and embrace our capabilities and enjoying the moral uplifting in actually breaking free for this 'them and us' attitude. Bullying does not work, eventually, it is the bully that is 'outed'.
We have created the most revolutionary communication of data sharing in real-time that has ever been created, used successful for our beta testing years. We know law enforcement as we were in the business and passionately created the necessary policing tools that increase the security of officers and close cases expeditiously.
The future is change, here now and those that recognize that fact, our door is open, our phones lines are available and yes, we believe in conversation and hold no malice whatsoever.
Make that call, especially if you want to really change and improve your law enforcement agency environment which in turn serves your community, which you are part of.
