This week I was a presenter at the Missouri Correctional Association's (MCA) Fall Conference at the Lake of the Ozarks, MO. We had a great time as I talked about Leadership - It's Your Journey and Staying Positive in a Negative Environment. After the classes, I was able to set up the podcast remotely and do several interviews with MCA members at the conference while they were in between classes and activities. What a wealth of correctional knowledge. Check out these interviews:
- MCA Treasurer Adam Barker - Tipton Correctional Center - Institutional Training Coordinator
- MPPOA President CarolLyree Price - District EP Unit Supervisor
- Warden Brock VanLoo - Tipton Correctional Center - Warden
- William Baumbach - Women's Eastern Reception, Diagnostic and Correctional Center - Correctional Officer II
- Jazmyn Shockley - University of Central Missouri - Student - Criminal Justice Major
