Shields Up: Internal Threats and Organizational Trust in 911 Centers
Most organizations train their people to respond to pressures from the outside—public scrutiny, high call volumes, and unpredictable emergencies. Yet in some environments, employees also feel compelled to protect themselves from internal dynamics such as inconsistent leadership, unclear expectations, or workplace politics. In this episode of LifeLine 911, we explore how internal friction quietly drains performance and morale, why it emerges in high-stress public safety settings, and what can be done to restore trust so energy can be spent where it matters most: serving the public.
