We explore why culture beats cash, how leader–member exchange strengthens trust, and why sergeants are the keystone of retention. Dr. Marshall Jones makes the case for borrowing proven business models, fixing communication beyond email, and putting guardrails on AI so cases stand up in court.

• education versus training and why the difference matters
• applying business and I‑O psychology models to policing
• toxic behavior definitions and positive accountability
• building a leadership pipeline from FTO to sergeant
• leader–member exchange as the daily discipline
• communication beyond email with face‑to‑face touchpoints
• recruiting less by retaining more through culture
• research bias, better data, and practitioner context
• AI report risks, court scrutiny, and policy safeguards

Dr. Jones is the co-author of the best-selling book, "Law Enforcement Leadership, Management, and Supervision." It's a must-read, and you can purchase it here.
