Hampton, Virginia Police Division requested Command Presence's Leading Without Rank training. The requestor withdrew the request
We have experienced a severe retention problem over the last year. We believe this is for several reasons. Officers do not feel valued due to a lack of strong and attentive leadership which is due to a lack of leadership training- at all ranks. We have not had the opportunity to provide the level of training our officers deserve due to budget restraints which often encourages them to seek employment elsewhere- often smaller agencies with more training opportunities. Retention, attrition due to lack of retention and leadership concerns all impact morale in a very negative way. We are beginning to improve the culture of our agency and are trying to do so through training-specifically leadership training at the lowest ranks.
