Commissioner Pete O’Doherty talks openly about personal drivers, the changing culture of leadership, and the journey toward a more inclusive and transformational style of command — one that values every voice in the organisation.

From a diverse academic background in theology, maths, and computer science, to his early motivations and formative leadership influences, Commissioner O’Doherty discusses what drew him to policing, the importance of faith and service, and why adaptive leadership is essential for modern policing challenges.

Parts two and three will be published on 11th and 18th of September
