Episode 4.29: Interview with West Midlands Chief Constable Craig Guildford QPM VR DL
Manage episode 432553316 series 2996380
Last week I had the privilege of an exclusive interview with Chief Constable Craig Guildford QPM VR DL. Craig has been Chief Constable for West Midlands Police for over 18 months, previously serving as Chief in Nottinghamshire. Like all my exclusive interviews with senior police leaders, he provides valuable learning and many pointers for aspiring police leaders everywhere.
Craig kindly answers an array of questions in this 30 minutes, including his advice for aspiring officers on where to focus their promotion prep, views on compassion and other emerging values in policing, his favourite ranks through a varied career, views on investigation standards, and what he expects from police leaders in West Mids. He also gives his perspectives on the police promotion exams and on standards and ethics, for which he is lead as part of the NPCC portfolios.
I'd like to thank Craig again for sparing some time from his busy schedule. I'll be posting a write-up on my policepromotion.blog soon, but for now, grab a coffee, sit back, and enjoy the show!
