Successful Leadership on the Tough Days
Colonel Danny McKnight
Danny R. McKnight is a retired colonel in the
United States Army. As a lieutenant colonel, he
was the commanding officer of the 3rd Ranger
Battalion and led the "Lost Convoy" during the
Battle of Mogadishu on October 3, 1993. He was
awarded the Bronze Star with Valor device for his
actions during the battle.
He attended Florida State University and received
a bachelor's degree in management in 1973. He
was also a distinguished military graduate from
the school's ROTC program.
Upon graduation, he was commissioned as a
Second Lieutenant of Infantry in the United States
Army. During his career, he served in a variety of
infantry assignments with conventional and
Ranger units. Ranger assignments include service
as company executive officer and instructor at the
mountain phase of the Ranger course; regimental
adjutant, 75th Ranger Regiment; S-3 (battalion
operations officer), 3rd Ranger Battalion;
executive officer, 3rd Ranger Battalion; executive
officer, 75th Ranger Regiment; and commanding
officer, 3rd Ranger Battalion. He retired from the
Army in 2002.
Page 4 of 31
On October 3rd, 1993, about a hundred elite U.S. soldiers
were dropped by helicopter into the teeming Bakaara
market in the heart of Mogadishu, Somalia. Their mission
was to abduct two top lieutenants of a Somali warlord and
return to base. It was supposed to take an hour. Instead they
found themselves pinned down through a long and terrible
night fighting against thousands of heavily armed Somalis,
which became the longest sustained firefight involving
American troops since the Vietnam War. Colonel
McKnight was the on scene ground commander during the
battle. In the motion picture adaptation of the battle, Black
Hawk Down, Colonel McKnight is portrayed by actor Tom
Sizemore.
Colonel McKnight will provide attendees with excellent
first hand insight on crisis leadership and being a leader
during the "tough times". We have arranged for him to
have his new book will be available for purchase and he
will be autographing them.

accreditation program is tailored more towards the New
Jersey law enforcement community. While some standards
are reasonably similar, others have changed and some are
new to the program.
Learning Objectives

Identify the standards that are new to the program.
2.
Identify those standards that remain in the program, but have
changed.
3.
List the files that need to be modified in order to attain
compliance with the new standards.
4.
Estimate the time needed to convert existing accreditation files
to the new program.
Mike holds a Masters of Administrative Science
with Fairleigh Dickinson University with
certificates in Public Administration, Law &

Distinguished Speaker
Led by a Lion - Leadership for the 21st Police
Century.
Richard E. Fairburn
Mr. Fairburn has more than 30 years of law
enforcement experience in both Illinois and
Wyoming, working patrol, investigative and
administrative assignments through the rank of
Police Chief. Dick has also served as a Criminal
Intelligence Analyst and as the Section Chief of a
major police academy's Firearms Training Unit
and Critical Incident Training program.
Mr. Fairburn has published more than 100 feature
articles in police periodicals and authored two
books: Police Rifles and Building a Better
Gunfighter. He currently serves as the Law
Enforcement Firearms columnist at
PoliceOne.com.
This class will focus on the role of a street-level police
leader. In particular, we will discuss the leadership skills
necessary to effectively lead a small team of officers into
the Kill Zone of a critical incident.
Learning Objectives
1.
Define the distinction between Leadership and Management
and present techniques for training the leadership skills
necessary for handling critical incidents.
2.
Outline the characteristics and skills necessary for a Leader to
perform a risk analysis and develop a hasty plan in a
dangerous environment.
3.
Emphasize the need for training Leaders in a hands-on,
scenario-based atmosphere.
4.
Describe the Leader’s role in non-critical incident missions;
such as training, debriefing, after-action report generation, and
post-incident support and counseling.
Dick was an early proponent of patrol rifles and
led that movement through his writing and
training activities. Following the Columbine
incident, Mr. Fairburn conducted an in-depth
analysis of historical active shooter incidents,
which determined the first generation of Rapid
Deployment/Active Shooter Response training
was inadequate. Many agencies have now adapted
their Rapid Deployment training to utilize smaller
Contact Teams and to include Bounding
Overwatch and other team movement tactics.
Mr. Fairburn earned a B.S. in Law Enforcement
Administration from Western Illinois University
and was the Valedictorian of his recruit class at
the Illinois State Police Academy.

Since the days of Sir Robert Peel, police agencies have
consistently allowed themselves to be defined by other
sources ranging from the media to pop culture. This has
presented a myriad of difficulties and challenges to the
profession from poor relations with service populations to
difficulty gathering the support necessary to achieve
agency goals and objectives. These problems stem mostly
from underlying misconceptions, inaccurate conventional
wisdom, and most importantly—the lack of a platform and
strategy with which to deliver an agency’s message to the
public unfettered. This innovative, dynamic session will
explore strategies for capitalizing on the latest in available
technology, social networking, and media relations
strategies in order to define your agency, take control of its
reputation, and foster a trusting and productive relationship
with the community.
Learning Objectives
1.
Participants will understand the popular misconceptions and
inaccurate conventional wisdom that negatively impacts the
ability of agencies to achieve their mission.
2.
Participants will understand the power of various social media
platforms and will learn how to capitalize on their availability,
speed, and cost-effectiveness to communicate an unadulterated
message directly to the service population.
3.
Participants will learn how to develop a public relations plan
and to identify the employees that are best suited to manage
and execute the agency’s public relations plan.
4.
Participants will learn strategies to get in front of and mitigate
issues that might negatively impact perception of the agency.
5.
Participants will understand the role of the media in
influencing agency image and will learn strategies to
maximize the effectiveness of the agency-media relationship.

Administrative Reporting Systems
A/Capt. Michael J. Rein, Rutgers University Police Department
Administrative reports ensure efficient communication up the chain of command and provide for

activities of operational or administrative components and reviewing those activities will assist in
improving management decisions. When properly interpreted, these reports help to maintain the
overall mission, goals, and objectives of the agency. This session is designed to be both informative
and interactive by providing attendees with an opportunity to review a myriad of administrative
reports with an end towards identifying those styles which would be beneficial in their agency.

Agency Demographics and Recruitment Plans
Capt. Michael J. Rogers (ret.), West Orange Police Department
The recruitment standards of the law enforcement accreditation process have embraced the important
philosophical concept (community expectation) that an agency’s sworn work force will be
representative of the available workforce in the agency's service community relative to its ethnic and
gender composition. If any group is underrepresented, the recruitment plan will include proactive
steps to encourage members of that group to seek employment opportunities. This seminar will teach
and enable the student to properly compile their agency and service community’s demographics in
order to identify the underrepresented population and then develop a comprehensive recruitment plan.

Microsoft Word in Policy Development
Marcie Anszperger, Rutgers University
The professional image of an organization, especially a law enforcement agency, is primarily
conveyed through the writings of its employees. Operations and investigation reports can and do go
all the way to the United States Supreme Court as well as the national media for close scrutiny for high
profile cases. What many agencies don't understand is that is equally important for their policies and
other types of written directives to convey not only well written content but they must also convey a
professional appearance. Learning and using the formatting features of Microsoft Word will help
achieve this image.
Learning Objectives
1.
To learn the many formatting features of Microsoft Word.
2.
To learn what a properly formatted policy looks like.
3.
To learn how to use the features in developing organization policy.
Ok, Got it... Now Prove It
Lt. Kieran Barrett, Montclair University Police Department
Lt. Brian Gibbons, Chatham Borough Police Department
Once an accreditation manager understands the key role they play, comprehends the standards in play
and develops the policy, the question that comes inevitably is…how do I prove that I am meeting the
standard. A common problem in accreditation management is almost always related to poor attention
in the area of proofs. This presentation will serve the new manager, as well as those wanting some
new ideas or would like to share their ideas, by answering the age-old question of accreditation, “just
what is an assessor looking for?” Participants will be encouraged to share their thoughts on what good
proofs are and what may not be.
Page 23 of 31
Fall Accreditation Conference Brochure
Accreditation is the Benchmark
