Racial Equity Expands Fairness and Justice to All

RITE classes are nationally recognized in encouraging a bias-free workplace, that includes racial equity inside and outside the agency. Our classes include a combination of emotional and social intelligence skill-building with unique accountability Tools. Years of research along with hands-on training, give your employees a sole-source experience that is unmatched.

“RITE Training benefits ALL (Fire, Police, Corrections) in Public Service”

Why RITE Training works for ALL in Public Service
RITE’s critical components of both Emotional Intelligence (EI) and Social Intelligence (SI), helps all in public service, improve communication on many levels. These classes help to improve resiliency awareness, as well as personal and professional relationships.

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.

Anger, Hate, and Blame, all live at the bottom of the RITE Ladder. Although we all can feel those emotions during our day, learning how to control them, is key to great leadership. Bias-free engagement, lives at the top of the Ladder with Love, Gratitude, Joy, and Confidence.

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

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

RITE Professional Workplace Training
Teaching components that reinforce your company’s values of having a professional bias-free workplace culture for all employees is our goal. Each class includes Emotional Intelligence Tools your employees learn from and use in class with each other, and well after we are gone.

Workplace Culture Breakdowns include:

Unprofessional Behavior
Elements of Entitlement
Mental Looping and Negative Banter
Implicit Bias and Hot Buttons
Rumors and Gossip
Unprofessional Social Media Posting

RITE helps reinforce the company culture of treating everyone fairly, in a professional manner. Learning to Value others, is key to building a professional workplace, that will be passed on for years to come.

How we react to a volatile situation is key. This training dramatically improves our Emotional Response when engaging with others, especially in pressure situations.

We make 35,000 decisions each day!
Deciding what we eat, what we wear, what we say, and how we’ll say it, our brains are on the go from the moment we wake up. The fact is, about 90% of the decisions Officer’s make, are based on emotions.

Officers and Emotional Intelligence
The benefit of emotional intelligence training, is in learning how officers can utilize it in the community. When using tactics of influence, emotional intelligence provides a groundwork for successful engagement. Emotional Intelligence is the foundation of RITE’s Emotional Response Training (ERT).

Many times coworkers and zone partners escalate situations because they themselves are in a negative space. Having emotional self-control means you value yourself, and are willing to work on yourself. But not all officers know how to ASK for help.

RITE’s Emotional Response Training (ERT) helps us recognize signs and symptoms of stress, PTSD, and suicidal thoughts. ERT offers ways and means to build up positive mental health for every officer, and a way to work on themselves in their own space and time.

We make 35,000 decisions each day!
Deciding what we eat, what we wear, what we say, and how we’ll say it, our brains are on the go from the moment we wake up. The fact is, about 90% of the decisions Officer’s make, are based on emotions.

Issues of Mental Health
Many times officers will escalate a situation because they themselves are in a negative space. They can’t get out of their own way, so they take their problems out on others. Having emotional self-control means you value yourself, and are willing to work on yourself.

Imagine if all officers that needed help, actually got it? Most agencies have mental health advocates in place these days, but some officer’s still feel they will be seen as weak. If we don’t know they are hurting, we can’t help them.

Depression, Anxiety, and PTSD
According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI), officers report higher rates of depression, burnout, PTSD, and anxiety than the general population.

RITE includes Emotional Response Training (ERT) to help officers learn to recognize signs and symptoms of stress, PTSD, and suicidal thoughts. ERT offers ways and means to build up positive mental health for every officer, and a way to work on themselves in their own space and time.

Chief Newton LOVES the Ladder!
The RITE Tools, like the Emotional Energy Ladder (seen in the photo), makes us aware of our emotions, how we affect others, and that only we have the power to make those changes. Great leadership starts with with improved Officer Wellness programs like RITE.
This lays the groundwork towards positive employee engagement, better mental health, and improved relationships at work and at home. Give the media something good to talk about!

Speakers
Linda Webb (left)
In 2018, an officer taking the RITE class took Ms. Webb aside during a break. He was considering suicide and as he put it, “my only way out of this pain.” Having the personal experience with the suicide of her police partner, and her own demons as a young Officer, Ms. Webb was able to help this commander release the pain.

Randy Friedman (right)
Ms. Friedman’s extensive experience in athletics and motivational training, combined with emotional and social intelligence, is the foundation that pieces the RITE Program together. This powerful groundwork for law enforcement and all public service professionals is what brought Ms. Friedman and Ms. Webb together again, to create the RITE Academy.

RITE Academy is the ONLY Training Company that helps improve the professional workplace with Emotional and Social Intelligence for Police, Fire, Corrections, and City Employees.

Why RITE Training works for Public Service
RITE’s critical components of both Emotional Intelligence (EI) and Social Intelligence (SI), helps all in public service, improve communication on many levels. These classes help to improve resiliency awareness, as well as personal and professional relationships.

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.

Anger, Hate, and Blame, all live at the bottom of the RITE Ladder. Although we all can feel those emotions during our day, learning how to control them, is key to great leadership. Bias-free engagement, lives at the top of the Ladder with Love, Gratitude, Joy, and Confidence.

RITE TRAINER'S Class @Moore Police Department (Oklahoma)
2024-09-11 00:00 - 2024-09-12 23:59 | Moore Police Advancement Center, 1311 N Janeway Ave., Suite 101, Moore, OK, 73160, United States
Registration is OPEN for all LAW Enforcement, Fire, EMS, 911, Corrections, and City Employees. Details, Registration, and Contact info below. Space is limited to the first 35 that register.

How we react to a volatile situation is key. This training dramatically improves our Emotional Response when engaging with others, especially in pressure situations.

We make 35,000 decisions each day!
Deciding what we eat, what we wear, what we say, and how we’ll say it, our brains are on the go from the moment we wake up. The fact is, about 90% of the decisions Officer’s make, are based on emotions.

Officers and Emotional Intelligence
The benefit of emotional intelligence training, is in learning how officers can utilize it in the community. When using tactics of influence, emotional intelligence provides a groundwork for successful engagement. Emotional Intelligence is the foundation of RITE’s Emotional Response Training (ERT).

Many times coworkers and zone partners escalate situations because they themselves are in a negative space. Having emotional self-control means you value yourself, and are willing to work on yourself. But not all officers know how to ASK for help.

RITE’s Emotional Response Training (ERT) helps us recognize signs and symptoms of stress, PTSD, and suicidal thoughts. ERT offers ways and means to build up positive mental health for every officer, and a way to work on themselves in their own space and time.

Course Summary
Decisions we make come from either our logical or emotional mind. Emotional intelligence (EI) is knowing how our emotional mind works, and learning to control our emotions, especially in pressure situations.

This course is necessary for anyone in public service, as it goes beyond work-life, and benefits home-life as well. Maintaining control over our emotions, especially in today’s policing, is critical. This course has been taught since 2015, and has helped many. Link to photos and surveys.

Officers with high Emotional Intelligence:

Manage emotional responses (ERT)
Recognize their emotions and why
Connect the link between emotions and behaviors

This training focuses on how to use better Emotional Responses to successfully manage the behavior of others. Law enforcement officers often encounter volatile situations, and their response can either help a situation or escalate it.

RITE has simplified the (6) modules taught in this class, to utilize the information immediately. Students learn practical skills using unique Tools for managing emotional responses, and ways to harness the power of the emotional part of the brain. Having a high EI is critical to working with in public service.

Emotional health issues are a known risk to an officer’s health and well-being. This training is a MUST for every first responder.

(4) Issues of Poor Mental Health

Depression, anxiety, and PTSD
Lack of Productivity
Even when available, most won’t seek help
Officer suicide

Officers have higher rates of depression, burnout, PTSD, and anxiety than the general population. Coworkers and zone partners often escalate situations because they themselves are in a negative space. Since not all officers know how to ASK for help, this training is critical.

Agency Equity Expands Fairness and Justice to All

RITE classes are nationally recognized in encouraging a bias-free workplace, that includes racial equity inside and outside the agency. Our classes include a combination of emotional and social intelligence skill-building, ERT (Emotional Response Training) and unique accountability Tools. Years of research along with hands-on training, give your employees a sole-source experience that is unmatched.

“Training cannot be done the same way we did in the 1980’s. In order to build racial equity that includes fairness and justice, we need to change how we do things, from leadership on down.” ~ Linda Webb

“RITE Training benefits ALL (Fire, Police, Corrections) in Public Service”

Why RITE Training works for ALL in Public Service
RITE’s critical components of both Emotional Intelligence (EI) and Social Intelligence (SI), helps all in public service, improve communication on many levels. These classes help to improve resiliency awareness, as well as personal and professional relationships.

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.

Anger, Hate, and Blame, all live at the bottom of the RITE Ladder. Although we all can feel those emotions during our day, learning how to control them, is key to great leadership. Bias-free engagement, lives at the top of the Ladder with Love, Gratitude, Joy, and Confidence.

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

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

RITE Professional Workplace Training
Teaching components that reinforce your company’s values of having a professional bias-free workplace culture for all employees is our goal. Each class includes Emotional Intelligence Tools your employees learn from and use in class with each other, and well after we are gone.

Workplace Culture Breakdowns include:

Unprofessional Behavior
Elements of Entitlement
Mental Looping and Negative Banter
Implicit Bias and Hot Buttons
Rumors and Gossip
Unprofessional Social Media Posting

RITE helps reinforce the company culture of treating everyone fairly, in a professional manner. Learning to Value others, is key to building a professional workplace, that will be passed on for years to come.

How we react to a volatile situation is key. This training dramatically improves our Emotional Response when engaging with others, especially in pressure situations.

We make 35,000 decisions each day!
Deciding what we eat, what we wear, what we say, and how we’ll say it, our brains are on the go from the moment we wake up. The fact is, about 90% of the decisions Officer’s make, are based on emotions.

Officers and Emotional Intelligence
The benefit of emotional intelligence training, is in learning how officers can utilize it in the community. When using tactics of influence, emotional intelligence provides a groundwork for successful engagement. Emotional Intelligence is the foundation of RITE’s Emotional Response Training (ERT).

Many times coworkers and zone partners escalate situations because they themselves are in a negative space. Having emotional self-control means you value yourself, and are willing to work on yourself. But not all officers know how to ASK for help.

RITE’s Emotional Response Training (ERT) helps us recognize signs and symptoms of stress, PTSD, and suicidal thoughts. ERT offers ways and means to build up positive mental health for every officer, and a way to work on themselves in their own space and time.

Course Summary
Decisions we make come from either our logical or emotional mind. Emotional intelligence (EI) is knowing how our emotional mind works, and learning to control our emotions, especially in pressure situations.

This course is necessary for anyone in public service, as it goes beyond work-life, and benefits home-life as well. Maintaining control over our emotions, especially in today’s policing, is critical. This course has been taught since 2015, and has helped many. Link to photos and surveys.

Officers with high Emotional Intelligence:

Manage emotional responses (ERT)
Recognize their emotions and why
Connect the link between emotions and behaviors

This training focuses on how to use better Emotional Responses to successfully manage the behavior of others. Law enforcement officers often encounter volatile situations, and their response can either help a situation or escalate it.

RITE has simplified the (6) modules taught in this class, to utilize the information immediately. Students learn practical skills using unique Tools for managing emotional responses, and ways to harness the power of the emotional part of the brain. Having a high EI is critical to working with in public service.

Emotional health issues are a known risk to an officer’s health and well-being. This training is a MUST for every first responder.

(4) Issues of Poor Mental Health

Depression, anxiety, and PTSD
Lack of Productivity
Even when available, most won’t seek help
Officer suicide

Officers have higher rates of depression, burnout, PTSD, and anxiety than the general population. Coworkers and zone partners often escalate situations because they themselves are in a negative space. Since not all officers know how to ASK for help, this training is critical.
