In 2023, his prior department’s innovative leadership received national recognition. He was named one of Police Magazine’s Innovative Law Enforcement Leaders for pioneering an officer wellness program, and the department was featured in Police Chief Magazine for its Citizen Advisory Committee initiative. These efforts reflected his commitment to transparency, operational excellence, and a service-oriented culture that builds public trust.

A nationally published author and sought-after speaker, he focuses on leadership development, mentorship, and emotional intelligence.

This week on Conflict Managed we welcome Patty Azzarello. Together we explore:

Learning to deal with scary problems

How to have everything you want (just not all at the same time)

What you get when you ask for help

Networking for introverts

Resilience in the face of bullying and bad treatment

The conflict, questions, and issues are present at work. Are you listening?

Is the negative behavior you’re experiencing annoying or is it dangerous?

At 35, Patty Azzarello was the most qualified candidate for a job running a $1 billion software business. But she didn't apply. She had already decided - quietly, without anyone asking her to - that she wasn't ready. When a mentor showed her the list of male candidates who had applied without hesitation, most of them less experienced, none of them were more qualified. That moment didn't just change her mind about that job. It changed how Patty understood everything she'd done up to that point.

Self-disqualification is one of the least discussed and most damaging forces in women's careers. Not the glass ceiling - the glass floor women build under themselves before anyone else gets the chance. Patty has spent her career studying it, living it, and now she's written the book on it.

Why Is SHE Still Here? is Patty Azzarello’s memoir of being the youngest GM at Hewlett-Packard at 33, running a $1B software business at 35 and becoming a CEO at 38 - while navigating sexism, imposter syndrome, and the relentless internal voice telling her she didn't belong in the room. It's not a polished success story. It's an honest account of every time Patty nearly got in her own way, and the unglamorous moves that got her through anyway.

Patty has spoken to audiences of over 10,000 at Intel, Oracle, Microsoft and P&G. She is the author of two previous bestsellers, RISE (Random House) and MOVE (Wiley). She isn't a motivational speaker - she's a former operator who has been in the rooms most people only read about, and she's refreshingly honest about what it actually took to stay in them.
