Not Only We Can, We Must Not Only We Can, We Must

Azarang (Ozzie) Mirkhah discusses fire service leadership's role and responsibility for initiating change through sound and measurable performance management and the restoration on the Assistance to Firefighters Grant Program set to expire in 2010.

 "The current global economic recession and our country’s political realities of today must remind us in the fire service that right or wrong, ready or not, 'change' is upon us. And as a bare minimum, we need to adapt, even if all that we hope for, is to maintain the status quo and not lose grounds. In my view though, it is even more important for us to take this opportunity to readjust our strategies, to enable us to provide the highest level of protection of our public, and maximize the rate of return on their investment on us. It is important for us to recognize that we can’t do that solely by being reactive and responding to fires as, we have historically done. We need to be more proactive. Can we do that? If our new Commander in Chief believes that “yes, we can”; then so should we. That is of course if we put our hearts in it. I believe that not only we can; we must. After all, it is our professional obligation." Access Full Article Here
