The Future of Leadership Development: The Policing Leadership Academy
What if the most powerful crime-fighting tool in your department isn’t a technology — it’s a leader?
In this episode of Future Policing, host Jim Bueermann sits down with Kenneth Corey, a career NYPD executive who once oversaw one of the most complex law enforcement organizations on the planet: 30,000 officers, 77 precincts, and a direct line to the Police Commissioner. Today, Corey is bringing those hard-won lessons to the Policing Leadership Academy (PLA) at the University of Chicago Crime Lab — and the results are making the case that leadership development isn’t a soft skill. It’s a crime reduction strategy.
They dig into why American policing has poured billions into equipment, technology, and tactics — while chronically underinvesting in the people who command the precincts, run the districts, and set the tone on the street. And they make a compelling argument: put the right leader in the right place, and the numbers move.
If you lead a police agency — or want to — this conversation is for you.

Combating Fentanyl: Applying a Counter-Network Framework
What if one of the deadliest threats to Americans today isn't a traditional war, but a mass poisoning orchestrated by a criminal empire as sophisticated as a Fortune 50 company? In this episode of Future Policing, former DHS official and cyber expert Jake Braun reveals how the Sinaloa Cartel has weaponized drones, the dark web, and cryptocurrency to flood our streets with lethal counterfeit pills. Forget the old "kingpin" strategies of the past — Braun explains why we must treat this crisis like a counter-terrorism operation, utilizing AI and next-generation technology to dismantle the digital infrastructure of a global monster.
The front lines of modern policing have moved from the street corner to your teenager’s smartphone, and the stakes have never been higher.
Book by Jake Braun: “Fentanyl: Fighting the Mass Poisoning of America and the Cartel Behind It.”
