Previous Episode: The Rescue Dilemma

Send us a Text Message.

This week, we will be hosting a Q&A session with the chiefs - Terry Garrison, Nick Brunancini, John Vance, and Greg Timinsky, to answer questions submitted by B Shifter listeners. We understand that dealing with a non-progressive fire chief who denies outside training requests can be challenging, but we have some insights that can help you navigate through the resistance. We will be discussing strategies for personal growth and the systemic issues of departments that avoid progressive leadership. We will also be drawing parallels to the importance of continuous training. Our conversation will extend to the repercussions chiefs may face when they fail to adapt and nurture their department’s personnel.

This episode features Nick Brunacini, Terry Garrison, Greg Timinsky and John Vance.
