Since its inception, policing has changed form in many different ways, while collectively searching to improve. From departmental Standing Operating Procedures, to tactics, diversity, sensitivity training, methods of investigation, analytics, logistics and countless other aspects, the desire to improve policing never ceases. I believe a category responsible for improving all aspects of policing will always be intelligence. How it is obtained, disseminated, used and the constant demand of proficiency in all three areas. This along with the selection of qualified, knowledgeable, resourceful and experienced individuals into leadership positions within the Division, promotes the best opportunity for improvements in this area. I have completed over 14 years of law enforcement experience. This includes 3 plus years employed as a police officer for the Lower Merion Township Police Department in Pennsylvania and 11 years in a variety of assignments within the Division. I have spent three plus years in the Intelligence & Criminal Enterprise Section. My skills, knowledge, resourcefulness and work ethic have all proved to be invaluable assets during my ascension to Detective Sergeant, both personally and and as a member of the teams I have worked with. …show more content…

What I discovered in becoming a trooper was the profound emphasis on criminal investigations, which I began to enjoy. To supplement the efforts of a criminal investigation, I found that the vast resources within the outfit and its dedication to this work, facilitated the road trooper in ways that were not available to me as a municipal police officer.

The Process of Reflection The process of reflection is central to clinical supervision. Launer (2003) describes external and internal factors in supervision whereby clinical practice and sharing skills are external and reflection is an ‘internal conversation.’ Brunero & Stein-Parbury (2008) discussed the effects of clinical supervision in nursing staff and argued that self-reflection generates a sense of self-awareness and knowledge to the individual. Supervisees or students may be asked what happened during a clinical event, how they felt, the implications of their actions and what they would do differently if faced with the same situation.

It is easy to learn about a subject from a book, but it is an entirely different matter to learn about a subject through real life experience. I hope to learn how to serve and protect while implementing the law correctly, especially in today’s world when the level of support for police officers is very low and the level of misconduct cases concerning the police are very high.

A career in policing requires an individual to meet a high standard for character and demonstrated behavior, in order to be developed into an effective officer. Succeeding in a police academy requires the candidate to display and apply integrity, a skill which must be developed before receiving admission. Integrity demonstrated through a police officer’s personal life, provides the foundation for a respected career. When presented with the opportunity to leverage a peace officer’s position for personal profit, an individual who has previously made selfless choices, is more reliable for operating within the law. Integrity as a term has the social implication of following ones beliefs, regardless of the opposition.
