Verbal Judo

Officers are safer when they use their words to achieve a professional purpose rather than express their personal feelings. The most dangerous weapon an officer carries is the "Cocked Tongue." He must use words as tools not weapons. Mind and mouth disharmony causes violence. Everything we teach in Verbal Judo can markedly enhance an officer’s ability to look good and sound good, as well as be good. How we do, what we do is often the difference between success and failure. We teach officers how to deliver "bad news" to others with dignity and respect. This stress on the "Art of Delivery" results in officers generating fewer complaints from their interaction with the public, and hence generating fewer lawsuits from their actions. Departments trained in Verbal Judo have seen reductions of up to 80% in complaints from the public, and an untold amount of dollars saved in lawsuits. All of this results in less stress for the officer and the department.
