One of the greatest challenges facing police and community leaders is determining how best to prepare police officers to meet the complex operational landscape of policing in the 21st century. Trauma-informed training has helped the field enhance its understanding of the socioeconomic factors that contribute to the complexity of policing. Turning this trauma-informed lens inward, to law enforcement’s organizations and people is a critical next step. The current science and research on human performance, trauma, recovery, and resilience can offer some waypoints along the evolutionary pathway of police leadership.
