My approach to leadership is simple but demands 100 % commitment and compliance. It is my duty to prevent crime and disorder. To seek and preserve public favor, not by pandering to public opinion, but by consistently demonstrating absolute public service to the law and the United States Constitution. I set the example in appearance, performance standards, and professional conduct. My actions are always in service to my subordinates and I provide them with the six tenements of a positive work climate: Clarity, Standards, Recognition, Involvement, Mutual Support, and Inter-unit relations.
