train as a group and gain tremendous insight from a variety of
perspectives."

LAW ENFORCEMENT LEADERS
WORLDWIDE ATTEND CHRIS RYAN'S MEDIA RELATIONS TRAINING |
|
 |
|
As our world becomes smaller by the minute, intense scrutiny by the
news media on police and law enforcement seems to increase by the
second.
Police departments world-wide have recognized the need for
professional training and counsel in media and public relations.
Whether in the
Americas, Europe, Asia, or the
Middle East, the ability to interact effectively with the
news media during a crisis
is critical for all law enforcement professionals.
To gain that skill, a
professional trainer is required who’s been on the frontlines and
who knows that the same old American law enforcement model may not
work everywhere. That trainer is
Chris
Ryan.
Ryan, founder of Ryan & Associates Public
Relations
of Phoenix, Arizona, offers a unique approach to law enforcement
public relations and crisis response training. Rather than flying in
the night before a seminar, armed with a highly-structured agenda
and word-for-word handouts, Ryan takes a much more organic approach
to training. This is particularly true as he works outside of the
United States.
He believes it is impossible to teach police
and other law
enforcement personnel how to interact with the public and news media without having
a personal knowledge of the culture in which they work. He immerses
himself in the local customs and hot-button issues before ever
taking the stage. Ryan finds this approach much more realistic than
reading a few articles and forming an opinion about how that
country’s police force should operate. That singular perspective
has served him well while training law enforcement agencies in such
diverse cultures as
Israel,
Croatia, Caribbean & the
United Arab Emirates.
