Leadership and Opportunities
The best reward and the best part of this business is being able to
find people that are like-minded in a passion of wanting to come
aboard. I enjoy employing people and then discovering things about
them that they did not even know and encouraging these traits for
their success. It is my goal to elevate them even higher in their work,
and, in turn, being able to elevate them even higher within themselves.
When I see my team, I give them glory as they are the true
heroes of Cop Stop. I often tell people that business leadership is
about people. While my wife and I may be at the top, it is the men
and women that make Cop Stop what it is. I describe it as the culture
of the business. You must build a good culture, a foundation.
When you build a culture where people like what they do, embrace
our purpose, it makes people want to come to work and fully engage
in what they do. Cop Stop also employs some prior first responders
who have been dedicated to the business for years. I give
credit to my past staff, my current staff, and then of course staff
that we do not even know yet (and who the Lord will bring).
