Speaking

The full keynote built from the book. Dana's story, ChiefBot's arrival, and the eleven encounters that reveal what AI can and cannot do in fire service leadership. Closes with a practical framework for what chief officers need to do right now — not someday. Built for conference general sessions and leadership summits. Leaves the room with something to do before the next session starts.

A hands-on session covering the five-integration model from Chapter 9: scheduling, compliance tracking, policy review, report drafting, and grant research. Participants leave with a department context document, three working prompts, and a 30-day implementation plan. Requires participant willingness to use a phone or laptop during the session.

AI, equity, and values-based decision making in the fire service. When the data is right and the answer is wrong — and what to do about it. Built around the Station 4 scenario from Chapter 8. Particularly relevant for departments navigating facilities decisions, resource allocation, or community trust challenges.

Adaptability as a practice, not a trait. Why the danger of knowing only one way is the most underdiagnosed risk in fire service leadership — and what to do about it before the next disruption arrives. Built for chief officer leadership programs, command-level development sessions, and fire service executive programs. Includes the Personal Adaptability Self-Assessment as a participant activity.

Where AI in the fire service is actually heading — not theoretically, but in terms of the specific capabilities already in deployment or development: CAD integration, predictive maintenance, community risk prediction, natural language documentation, scenario generation. And what leadership capacity the next five years require. For chief officers who want to be preparing rather than reacting.
