I’m Dustin, a retired law enforcement captain from Northern California. I spent nearly three decades in the profession, patrolling some of the toughest neighborhoods. I led teams through an incredibly challenging time for the profession, and from that experience, I gained valuable insight into performance, communication, and wellness.

In my contribution to this book, I share how I've used tactical empathy in tough situations, to get better outcomes.

The book is full of stories from professionals around the world. I hope you enjoy it, and you put these concepts to use.

Ret. Capt. Dustin A. Kulling
