RITE Harassment Training @Richmond Police Dept. MAY 29, 2019 (Richmond, TX)

Harassment in the Workplace

Private Training:

RITE Emotional Intelligence & Harassment Training for Richmond Police Dept. will be conducted over (3) half-day sessions. This private training is by invitation only by Richmond Police Chief Gary Adams. Originally designed for police and corrections departments, RITE Academy has delivered training to multiple government agencies, universities, corporate clients and NGOs.

Richmond Mission Statement

Our mission is to provide fair and impartial service, while working with the community to improve the quality of life for all. We strive to do the right thing, for the right reason, in every situation.

Pro-active steps towards Richmond’s Values

RPD has taken proactive measures to give their police officers RITE training and tools. This class will help improve communication, reduce any bias-based policing, harassment, and inappropriate behavior of any kind. Teaching critical components of both Emotional Intelligence (EI) and Social Intelligence (SI), improves resiliency awareness, as well as personal and professional relationships.

With proven RESULTS that RITE Training decreases use of force, our classes combine Emotional Intelligence (EI) and Social Intelligence (SI), which has been successfully used in high-pressure jobs for years. This helps your department build bias-free policing within the community.

Emotional Intelligence is being aware of our emotions, and to acknowledge that emotions can drive behavior that impacts others (positively and negatively). Social Intelligence is how we effectively navigate and negotiate all social relationships and situations.

RITE Tools, like the Emotional Energy Ladder (in this photo), makes us aware of our emotions, how we affect others, and that only we have the power to make those changes. Racism lives at the bottom of the Ladder with Hate. Bias-free lives at the top of the Ladder with Love, Gratitude and Joy.

A safe workplace, free of all types of harassment starts with doing the RITE thing, and helping others do the same.

Racial Intelligence is: “The practice of using Emotional Intelligence (EI), Social Intelligence (SI) and the RITE Tools to treat ourselves and others fairly.”
