On my recent visit to Sussex Police, I asked officers there "What makes a good leader?". In this FREE episode (accessible to subscribers first) I share the findings and the completely new leadership framework I created from the dozens of Post-it notes placed in a jar.
I call it the Sussex Leadership Framework (SLF). Read more about it and a visual overview in my associated blog, but for now I hope you enjoy the episode!

The College of Policing recently released a "new" CVF for 2024. But is it really all that different?

Last week I was invited by Sussex Police Federation to present at their officer roadshow / engagement event.
Many aspiring officers approached my stall and we had some good discussions about their views and concerns about promotion, leadership, and policing generally. In this debrief, I share some of those insights, my experiences of the event, and perspectives on what Sussex Police Federation are doing for their members.
I'll be posting a write-up on my policepromotion.blog soon about this event, the interview, and a question I asked all attendees, but for now, grab a coffee, sit back, and enjoy the show! PS. My podcasts aren't scripted and as such made a couple of bloopers... I'm sure you know what I meant, but to make it a little fun first to spot them and email me gets a free Interview Success guide worth £59!

Last week I had the pleasure of interviewing Chris Thompson, Treasurer and Dep Secretary of Sussex Police Federation. This followed an exciting engagement event they ran for officers at Sussex Police.
It was a really interesting perspective speaking to the Federation about support for officers, including shining a light on some innovative practices here in Sussex Police. Pay and morale survey, national and local Federation issues, the role of the Federation, professional standards, supporting officers to achieve success, training, scrutiny of officers, the fairness of promotion, their new Sussex Fed magazine, and more.
I'd like to thank Chris again for spending the time on this informative discussion. I'll be posting a write-up on my policepromotion.blog soon about this event, the interview, and a question I asked all attendees, but for now, grab a coffee, sit back, and enjoy the show!

I've been busy in recent months, but am now proud to share with you the fruits of my intensive labour!
So this is just a quick episode summarising the features and benefits of my BRAND NEW police promotion masterclass, which focuses on 'what works' in promotion and leadership.
You can download your copy securely from my site:

Check out my YouTube channel for the trailer, extended highlights, and outtakes videos all published recently.
This week I had the privilege of interviewing Acting Chief Constable of Devon and Cornwall Police, Jim Colwell. Jim has been standing in as Chief Constable for DCP since July 2023, stepping up to the position following the suspension of Will Kerr. And as another inspiring police senior leader, he doesn't disappoint, with this exclusive discussion providing valuable learning for aspiring police leaders everywhere.
A lot of ground is covered in the 40 minutes, including Jim's proudest moments in policing, advice for aspiring officers, views on compassion and other emerging values in policing, the step up to Superintendent, and much more. He also answers my question about what the 'Holy Grail' of police promotion might be.
I'd like to thank Jim again for sparing some time from his busy schedule. I'll be posting a write-up on my policepromotion.blog soon, but for now, grab a coffee, sit back, and enjoy the show!
