Out in Front Jared Hepler

Publisher Marketing: Out in Front is a collection of outrageous and outlandish stories of leadership challenges that CPT Hepler and his Command Team encountered during his time as the Commander of the 13th Military Police Detachment at Schofield Barracks, Hawaii. Each insane story describes a detailed sequence of events and how CPT Hepler and his Command Team addressed it. These are real stories, real people and real issues that are too crazy to fiction. The names have been changed to protect their privacy but each situation described within these pages really happened. As you read each story, determine what you, as a leader, would do and why. In doing so, you will come to one of three different conclusions; 1) you agree with my course of action 2) disagree with my course of action or 3) not sure what you would do. No matter which one you arrive at, each situation will force you to think critically and reflect internally on your leadership style and ultimately solidify who you are as a leader. Anybody, Soldier or not, that is placed in any kind of leadership position, this book is for you. Please remember that your success depends on your subordinates and they will suffer for your failures and/or shortcomings. Don't let them down.
