Start With Why: Leadership Theory & Application (Educational Companion Course)

This is an instructor-guided online course designed to assist law enforcement professionals in understanding the leadership concepts presented in Start With Why by Simon Sinek. This course is structured as an educational companion, similar to an online college-level leadership course, and is intended to support promotional exam preparation and professional development.

Participants receive six (6) months of access from the date of purchase to all course materials through the J. Harris Academy learning platform and mobile app. Content is available on-demand, allowing students to study at their own pace while preparing for written examinations, oral boards, and assessment-based promotional processes.

The course breaks down key leadership concepts—including purpose, motivation, influence, trust, organizational culture, and decision-making—and explains them in clear, structured terms relevant to supervisory, command, and executive roles in law enforcement. Emphasis is placed on terminology, theory, and practical understanding to help candidates accurately interpret exam questions and articulate leadership reasoning.

Course access includes:

  • Structured instructional lessons aligned to the book content
  • Digital flashcards for terminology and concept reinforcement
  • Practice exam questions designed to test comprehension
  • Review exercises and study resources accessible through the J. Harris Academy app
