Fire Service Programs
Few organizations can be as challenging as the volunteer fire service. From the diversity of the membership, to the increasing training required, it is a complex organization. Getting people to not only give up their time, but put them through physical and mental stress, and then expose them to a risk prone environment...it is clearly challenging. In this time of two family incomes and other external pressures, making certain that the culture of these organizations is positive and compelling to its members is vital. This is clearly the responsibility of leadership within these organizations. Our organization can assist you in this area.
There is also a concerning trend that has been tracked by the media, and while it involves a small minority of actors, it can have devastating impact on the organization. It is called "Reputation Management", and its potential to destroy years of good will and trust with the community is real. Our consultants can help assess, formulate, and administer programs and tools to help curb the potential threat of negative press.
