Training

Fireproofed Leadership Training–Building a Better Culture through Stronger, More Determined Leadership

If your leadership has ignored its responsibility to lead its culture, treat people well, and ignore major instances of bad behavior, your organization is at risk.  Financial, legal, attraction, and retention of good employees, reputations, and productivity are endangered.  If you want to protect your assets from getting burned, you need to fireproof.

Fireproofing ensures your leadership and management have the mindset, understanding, and tools to deal with the arsonists (issues) in your organization and how to make sure your culture is strengthened. Or the answer may lie in values propositions that need to be strengthened, trust rebuilt, or communication channels opened.  Through half and full-day courses, you and your team will learn to identify, deal with, and eliminate toxic behaviors in the workplace while providing valuable leadership and management lessons that reduce risk across the board.

Consulting

Culture Transformation

If your organization has a toxic workplace,  you have problems spreading like wildfire.  You need to put out the fire, rebuild, and then fireproof through Pete’s Toxic Transformation ™ consulting process.

Toxic Transformation starts with identifying the problem areas, re-establishing the organization’s core values, then identifying and implementing solutions. Pete will work with you and your team every step of the way.

Public Safety Culture Division

Pete’s Fireproofed Leadership training has become a fixture at law enforcement and fire service leadership conferences and at departments around the nation. It was recently in the spotlight at the recent annual conference of the International Association of Chiefs of Police. Pete’s book, The Arsonist in the Office, has been called “The Bible for municipal managers.”  Pete has helped numerous police and fire departments through training, consulting, crisis management, leadership development, and coaching services.

Knowing that some cultural changes are more challenging than others, Fireproofed Leadership is pleased to have accomplished and successful culture builders on his advisory team.
