“Do Not Miss This Great Speaker”

ABOUT GORDON GRAHAM

Gordon Graham is a 33 year veteran of Public Safety and recently retired from the California Highway Patrol. He was awarded his Teaching Credential from California State University. He graduated from the University of Southern California with a Master’s Degree in Safety and Systems Management. Subsequent to this he graduated from Western State University with a Juris Doctorate. His education as a Risk Manager and experience as a practicing Attorney, coupled with his extensive background in public safety, have allowed him to rapidly become recognized as a leading professional speaker in both the private and public safety sector with multiple areas of expertise.

Mr. Graham has centered his efforts in providing knowledge to all types of organizations in the area of Organizational and Operational Risk Management, Civil Liability, Professionalism, Ethical Decision Making and related topics. He teaches employees, officers and managers why things generally go wrong, and how to prevent these unfortunate situations from happening. He includes a dynamic presentation on how to recognize the incidents that have a likelihood of ending up in litigation. This is the only program that combines legal aspects of these topics with a risk management approach to elimination of such incidents “prior” to occurrence. Each of the presentations includes the appropriate written “rules” for the topic covered. These risk management rules allow the informed listener to make immediate, progressive changes in operations to better protect themselves and their organization.

Over the last decade, Mr. Graham has made over 3,000 presentations to various groups and organizations. Since 1990, he has consistently received the highest evaluations on P.O.S.T critiques. In 1995 he received the Governor’s Award from Governor Wilson for Excellence in Training. Along with Chief Billy Goldfeder he sponsors www.FirefighterCloseCalls.com

His penetrating wit coupled with his vast knowledge in multiple disciplines provides the enlightened listener with an information packed seminar.

We are very fortunate to have Mr. Graham present a seminar to our organization. I have been very fortunate to hear Mr. Graham speak on two different occasions and I highly recommend this seminar to everyone. You will not be disappointed!! Sign up early!!
