The success of an Emergency Communications Center depends heavily on its leadership. Directors must navigate complex operations, difficult interpersonal dynamics, personnel needs, organizational expectations, and communication with governing boards and public officials, all while supporting employees working in a high-stress environment.

 

The cumulative weight of these responsibilities can affect a leader’s well-being, decision-making, relationships, and ability to lead effectively. This course examines the stressors unique to 9-1-1 leadership and provides evidence-based resilience and coherence strategies designed for the realities of leading an ECC.
