If Any of the Above Sounds Familiar, the 10-4 Solution™ Can Help
You’ve watched the shows, you know the game… The dispatcher radios to a patrol car with an assignment and the officer responds with a 10-4. It’s more than an officer saying, “Okay”—it means, “I heard and understood where and to what I’m responding, and I’ll handle it from here.” Wouldn’t it be great if your employees had the same “10-4 attitude” when taking assignments from your leaders?
So What is the 10-4 Solution™?
As a former police dispatcher, police officer and police lieutenant, leadership expert Pam Wyess understands the importance and value of employees with a “10-4 attitude”—not just in emergency situations, but in any industry. That’s why she developed the 10-4 Solution™, a practical, easy-to-implement method and approach to relationship building, leadership and management.
