About Dennis Eddy
Offering 23 years of field operational experience and 11 years of leading people in achieving organizational goals, I\'ve honed an excellent set of operational management skills applicable to any industry.As a patrol sergeant leading a team of 20, I orchestrate workflows and schedules of our field and administrative staff to meet the ever-changing needs of the community we serve. I manage individual performance, conducting regular reviews and coaching to develop team skills. I\'m passionate about training, leveraging it to optimize processes and develop organizational capability around compliance and appropriate procedures.Data analysis and research have long been supporting players in the successful operations of our department. In a recent position, I evaluated data to determine common case weaknesses, using the results of the study to improve procedures and ultimately reducing the number of case rejections from the DA - as well as the amount of follow up needed. The data doesn\'t lie - efficient processes are born and the reach of our department\'s work is extended.I am an empathetic and motivating leader, preparing my teams to efficiently and effectively do their work and supporting them in the process. My customer service skills are exceptional and my experience with the public deep. I am data driven and adhere to procedure and compliance.
