This does not mean caving in or being overly emotional -- to me, it means trying to put myself in another person's shoes and see things from their perspective. To me, being judgmental is the opposite of being compassionate, so I always strive to consider all of the circumstances rather than just writing off a human being as a just a useless criminal or as 'trash'. I remember an instance in my own life when I saw police officers hassling a homeless man and calling him names and I thought to myself, "How can they treat another human being that way?" I also understand, however, that it is not wise to get too emotionally involved and also that appearing vulnerable can be perceived as a sign of weakness. That is what makes finding the balance between authority and kindness such a difficult task.
Going to extremes is always a problem, meaning that finding a balance is a very worthwhile goal. Because police officers are in an authoritative position, we cannot afford to have extreme reactions or behaviors. When an officer does not know his own boundaries, this is when situations tend to spiral out of control.
Knowing my limits and boundaries is a challenge that I have been working to meet through the process of self-reflection. My training and my experience...
This is an area in which I was most definitely lacking in the past, but ironically, I was not aware of this because I never took the time to look within myself and search for the areas which were in need of improvement. For example, I used to think I was very forgiving but then after reflecting on some of things I have done, I realized that I still have a lot of work do. I have gotten better, but I have certainly not mastered this task by any means. I am however making a concerted effort to try to better understand myself, including my values, my motivations and my behaviors. I believe that this will be an invaluable tool that I will seek to hone for the rest of my career and the rest of my life.
All of my life I have wanted to be a police officer because I have wanted to make my community a better and safer place to live. I have always admired police officers for their bravery and dedication to the force, and to each other. I desire that same type of pride in myself and in the work I do. I intend on being the best police officer I can possibly be, and to always strive to improve both myself and the small piece of the world that I serve.
Mission and vision statements are important ways for organizations to express their purpose and goals; they are also important methods of establishing organizational culture. Developing clear mission and vision statements provide "synergy" for the members of the organization, a sense of worth and direction; and a basis for planning and strategy (David, 2011, p. 50). Moreover, large organizations especially benefit from clear mission and vision statements in that they help

A mission is valueless if it does not truthfully motivate and guide the force of every worker in the similar course. Everyone has to consider the mission is sensible and achievable and not just unfilled speechifying (11). Business leaders must "outshine" by setting the model for all workers. They do not merely converse about missions, but they develop into a perfect example of the contemporary value; they should live by
Mission and Vision Statements Why it is important to establish your vision and mission before you begin your administrative internship? In my opinion, the relevance of having a clear and definite vision and mission in place prior to beginning one's administrative internship cannot be overstated. For purposes of this discussion, a vision will be taken as that mental picture one possesses with regard to a given undertaking. On the other hand, a
I believe that I can achieve this goal by learning from the graduate program the different practical and theoretical information about the ways children learn and develop. I intend to seriously participate in the different activities that the graduate program will hold in order for me to learn the skills required to achieve success in my profession of being an early childhood education teacher. Thirdly, in entering the graduate program,
The vision should be forward thinking -- it is a vision into the desire future of the company. The vision is something that the company is working towards. This vision should also be inspiring. If the vision does not inspire, then the stakeholders will not work towards it. A vision should not only provide something to which the company is working, it should also compel them to work towards it. The
