Press Release from Branford Police Department

On June 23, Lieutenant Rashaad Roach graduated from the 87th Session of the Police Executive Research Forum’s (PERF) Senior Management Institute for Policing (SMIP).

The three-week school was held at Boston University in Boston, Massachusetts.

Session #87 featured 105 executives from around the country brought together to use their critical thinking skills in a learning environment to explore the important issues facing law enforcement.

“SMIP was conceived as an executive development program that uses faculty members from business schools and other disciplines in universities to teach the principles of leadership, using case studies. SMIP has always been a program that pushes up-and-coming leaders—the police chiefs and sheriffs of tomorrow—to think creatively about organizational change and the qualities that leaders need to be successful,” according to PERF’s Executive Director Chuck Wexler.

Lt. Roach joins over 6,000 graduates since the program’s inception in 1980.
