Ep. #130 - Former Police Officer, Former Director of Virginia’s Gang Reduction Program, and Best-Selling Author Bobby Kipper Wants to Help You Succeed and Make an Impact

When it comes to crime and violence prevention, a person who has an extensive and proven record is critical to finding solutions. My guest Bobby Kipper has vast experience in policing and as director of Virginia’s Gang Reduction Program.  He established The National Center for the Prevention of Community Violence and works closely with communities, schools, and police departments to prevent and reduce violent behavior. He recently co-authored with David Hancock a new book titled Performance Driven Thinking - A Challenging Journey That Will Encourage You to Embrace the Greatest Performance of Your Life to help develop leaders. He inspires us to live our lives filled with purpose each day and to develop leaders in the public safety field. With the recent uptick in school violence, Bobby has been extremely busy as a consultant. In this episode, we discuss how we all need to be a part of reducing and preventing the violence that occurs daily and how finding our purpose and developing leadership skills is so impactful.
