According to the book description of
Rising Through the Ranks: Leadership Tools and Techniques for Law Enforcement, “Effective
leadership is a journey, not a destination. Rising through the Ranks will be the starting point in that journey for thousands
of men and women in law enforcement. Telling real stories of leadership and courage from police departments and investigative
agencies, former DEA agent and Pittsfield, Massachusetts Police Chief Mike Wynn is the perfect author. As the only book of
its kind, Rising through the Ranks will prepare effective leaders from local police officers to federal agents.”
One reader of Rising Through
the Ranks: Leadership Tools and Techniques for Law Enforcement said, “Very good book, I am currently Deployed
in Iraq and this books has helped me with leadership problems and solutions here which I know will help when I get out and
pursue a career in law enforcement. The seller has very fast shipping and received the book in excellent condition.
One reader of Rising Through
the Ranks: Leadership Tools and Techniques for Law Enforcement said, “I know Mike Wynn personally, but
little about law enforcement. But my MBA from B.C. and 20+ years of followership and leadership in the financial services
industry has given me much experience with the concept of good management. After reading 'Rising Through the Ranks' I understand
that leadership skills are quite different from the focus of my management training. I'm impressed with how applicable the
concept of leadership is to the business world I know. The book is a good read and makes an excellent case for the universal
need for good leaders. I'm recommending it to all the business managers I know.”
