USCG Chief Petty Officer Academy. This course brought to me a greater mind strength to help hone greater ability to handle generations, relationships and assess one self in the organizational thought process. This course should be available to all personal across the board including DoD and Senior GS positions.
There were three topic’s I felt that were impactful toward my future maturation process as a leader, these three were leadership practices inventory (LPI), wellness and presentations.

All these are tools for the bag of leadership, getting a better understanding and taking a step back to evaluate different avenues of leadership can only provide better ways to strengthen a commands mission.
The LPI is taking accountability of one self and to harness a better work force your operating unit. Wellness is such important leadership tasking that I have used this in my intrusive l leadership style in the past. The DoD mandates semi-annual physical training readiness test and a service member can be omitted from the service if fails to many physical readiness test.
I always provided PT time to all my Sailors, but never gave them tools on how to PT. I just said, go to the 3 days a week, you have 1 hour. What I liked about this course, was the structure, tempo, dynamic, traditional and the order of the exercises. It keep my muscles confused and working out in a peer group setting, helped foster espree decor environment. I felt there was a lot of value in learning what HDL/LDL and how to target heart rates. I also enjoyed the curriculum of presentation and how it builds confidence

    Respect and Tolerance After reading Laudato Si and Pacem in Terris and discussing their major concepts with the class, the most memorable and realistic goal that resides with me is respect and tolerance of each individual. The idea of treating everyone in our paths as if we are in the presence of God seems simple enough to comprehend, but proves to be immeasurably difficult for the vast majority of the population. The difficulty may prove true for various reasons; however, this should not be an excuse. When I was growing up, I was taught the importance of this value in all aspects of my life. Growing up Catholic, I fully understand the power and meaning of love and hate.…
