Welcome back to another Tactical Friday! Today I’m welcoming back Adam Kinakin, the host and producer of The Tactical Breakdown Podcast. As we learned in the last show, Adam is an active member of the International Law Enforcement Educators & Trainers Association (ILEETA) where he has held several successful summits where he collaborates on training models.

Let’s talk about what we can expect from Adam’s training and how he is making an impact.

Things you will learn in this episode:

[00:01 – 01:50] Opening Segment

I welcome back today’s guest, Adam Kinakin
What to expect from him
ILEETA
Adam talks about how accepting the training is the first step

[01:51 – 08:56] Bring on the Real Expert

Adam talks about looking for new ways of sharing knowledge and info
Brining on the expert
The instructor should have the knowledge
First aid course example
Being a facilitator of knowledge
Find the experts and invite them to share
Vetting process
Training agency to agency
Training that goes against the manual is not obsolete
Examples of limiting practices
Training is constantly evolving

[08:057 – 16:54] Be Open to the Evolving Models

Having an open mind in training
Even if you just take one thing away from it it’s valuable
Take in as much info as possible and do your best job
You’re job as a leader
Your badge makes you a leader in the community
It’s your job to have knowledge
Broadening your perspective
What to expect in Adam’s training
Continually putting stuff out there
Look at your current tech and training videos
No laziness
No answers, but collaboration brings us all closer
Looking at addressing future problems
Preventative and proactive, rather than reactive

[16:55 – 20:45] Closing Segment

It’s ok not to have the answer as long as you’re asking the question
