  • Episode 5.32: Another Police Leadership Review
    Nov 3 2025

    +++ FREE EPISODE +++

    The 2015 Leadership Review sought comprehensive changes in police leadership and culture at all levels. Now another review has been launched by the College of Policing to "conduct a comprehensive review of police leadership at all levels to ensure policing can respond to evolving threats and challenges and meet public expectations." And with an associated commission no less, led by former Home Secretary Lord Blunkett and former Policing Minister Lord Herbert.


    In this jam-packed free episode, I give an overview of the review and who's involved, its relevance to other strategic policing reports, predicting what it will find and recommend (both pessimistic and optimistic views), cover some military perspectives on leadership, discuss the involvement of academia, and much more.


    I hope you find it insightful and interesting. All is great CPD and supporting your environmental scanning, whatever your level in policing. It's especially relevant if you're in or seeking the more strategic ranks of Inspector and above, but will no doubt fascinate anyone with an interest in policing.

  • Episode 5.19: Interview with Festus Akinbusoye, Former Bedfordshire PCC
    Jun 26 2025

    Here's a fantastic and insightful interview with another inspiring police leader: Festus Akinbusoye.

    Festus served as the Bedfordshire Police and Crime Commissioner from 2021 to 2024, worked as a dedicated Special Constable clocking up 30 hours per week, and is a successful local businessman and public figure. As you can expect, this is a fascinating and insightful interview covering a lot of ground and a unique perspective, not least coming from the other side of the fence in terms of the PCC role.


    I'd like to thank Festus again for the time he puts to this interview and extent of responses given. I'll be posting a write-up on my policepromotion.blog soon, but for now, grab a coffee, sit back, and enjoy the show!
