Dr. Susanne Knabe-Nicol, PhD, on Leading Healthy Change in Public Safety, speaking with Fleet Maull. U.K. police veteran, investigative psychologist, advocate for evidence-based policing, and founder of Police Science, Dr. Susanne Knabe-Nicol, Ph.D., discusses her current work in making sound scientific research available in digestible video formats through an online global platform to active law enforcement leadership and frontline officers to foster and support an evidence-based approach to reform and transformation in policing and public safety -- both in terms of officer safety and wellbeing and improvements in law enforcement practice and community relations. The need to evolve policing to the same evidence-based practice standards that we demand and expect in medicine and other professions... establishing law enforcement best practices grounded in quality scientific research. How traditional modes of policing damage police-community relations, as well as the law enforcement professionals themselves, and the need to change to a more human-centered, emotionally intelligent approach and law enforcement culture. The critical role of leaders in removing the stigmas associated with self-care and mental health care and to lead the way in modeling good self-care practices and getting regular mental health check-ups.

SUSANNE KNABE-NICOL, Ph.D. Susanne worked in UK policing for over a decade and completed a PhD in Investigative Psychology part-time. She set up Police Science Dr to create a broad range of research-based videos, and the plan is for a global communication platform for researchers and practitioners as well as a collection of police-relevant courses, all in one place. Susanne has the desire to make research accessible and skilled herself up to be able to create online courses and interactive videos, so now she wants to help the policing community with these assets. There is an awful lot of great research being done and published, but then only read by other academics. This just doesn't make sense, so she started turning research into videos, as every officer can make time to watch a short video, but they might not be able to access and digest a research paper.
