Bringing 911 intelligence directly into real-time crime centers can help expedite police response when children go missing, retail thefts occur or shots are fired. Advances in technology are making it possible for RTCC analysts to review real-time transcripts and translations of emergency calls, AI-generated call summaries and videos or images from community members. This situational awareness helps officers to better understand what's happening and shave potentially life-saving seconds from their response to emergencies. In this episode of the Policing Matters podcast, part of a special report from Motorola Solutions Summit 2025, host Jim Dudley speaks with Glendale Interim Chief of Police Colby Brandt and Dave Wilson, Retired Assistant Police Chief and Senior Solutions Specialist with Motorola Solutions. They explore how agencies are using technology to expedite the response to community and enterprise-reported 9-1-1 incidents.

For police officers, access to the right information at the right time is critical. Most operate in a sea of data from across public safety systems — radio dialogue, streaming video from fixed, mobile and body cameras, location data — but it can be hard to identify and analyze what's most important in the moment. New devices and applications of artificial intelligence are simplifying technology for officers and providing contextual and actionable information that's personalized for the time, person and place where decisions need to be made. They are further unifying sources of evidence for a more comprehensive timeline of events and more accurate reports. In this episode of the Policing Matters podcast, part of a special report from Motorola Solutions Summit 2025, host Jim Dudley sits down with James Felton, Manager of IT Services with the Peel Regional Police in Canada and Jason Hutchens, Area Sales Manager for Software at Motorola Solutions to discuss how the convergence of radio, video and AI can serve as a force multiplier, capturing and synthesizing a greater diversity of data throughout an incident for expedited emergency response and more accurate police reporting.

A challenge in emergency response is often the gap between the rapidly evolving event and the information available to authorities. By establishing secure channels for community partners to share vital data including emergency contacts, floor plans and security camera livestreams, authorities are able to gain enhanced real-time visibility. This bridging of information enables more precise and effective interventions that prioritize the safety and well-being of the community. In this episode of the Policing Matters podcast, part of a special report from Motorola Solutions Summit 2025, host Jim Dudley sits down with Mike Armitage, the executive director of Calhoun County Consolidated Dispatch Authority and Lashinda Stair, retired assistant police chief and current industry team director with Motorola Solutions to discuss how programs that connect law enforcement and community organizations and businesses can help first responders be better informed during emergencies.

Paperwork is a necessary reality of police work, but a handful of public safety agencies are introducing innovative new technologies to streamline how this work is done and help maximize the time officers are able to spend on the beat. The Los Angeles Police Department is one of the first major police departments in the U.S. to adopt a mobile-first vision for policing, enabling its officers to perform field work on their phones. In this episode of the Policing Matters podcast, part of a special report from Motorola Solutions Summit 2025, host Jim Dudley sits down with Monique Turner, Information Systems Manager with the Los Angeles Police Department, and Dave Wilson, retired assistant police chief and senior solutions specialist with Motorola Solutions to dive into the Los Angeles Police Department's mobile-first approach and how it's helping officers spend more time on patrol.

With over 240 million 911 calls made each year, a faster response time to a call can make a consequential difference. Drone as a First Responder programs allow 911 call handlers to immediately dispatch drones in response to emergency calls, streaming video of the scene back to the command center and to officers in the field so that they arrive better prepared. Drones purpose-built for public safety can even deliver various payloads, including medication, defibrillators and other devices. In this episode of the Policing Matters podcast, part of a special report from Motorola Solutions Summit 2025, host Jim Dudley sits down with Billy Gessner, Technical Manager for the Real-Time Operations Center at the Collier County Sheriff's Office and Alan Melvin (ret.) North Carolina State Highway Patrol and Industry Team for Motorola Solutions, to learn about the benefits of drone as first responders and advice on implementing the technology.

Welcome to your weekly UAS News Update. We have 4 stories for you this week. Zipline expands its drone delivery service into Texas through a partnership with Walmart, NASA is developing a new system designed to predict drone hazards before they happen, Pierce Aerospace has deployed drone detectors to the US Border, and BRINC raises $75m.First up this week, Zipline is bringing its drone delivery service to the Dallas area, starting in Mesquite, Texas. This expansion comes through a partnership with retail giant Walmart. Customers in the service area can now sign up to get orders delivered in about 30 minutes using Zipline's latest drone model, the P2 Zip.The drone can carry payloads up to eight pounds within a 10-mile radius. Zipline boasts about their precision, claiming "dinner plate-level" accuracy, meaning they can land a package on a space as small as a doorstep or a small table. The P2 Zip uses both lift and cruise propellers and has a fixed-wing design, which helps it fly quietly and handle gusts of wind up to 45 miles per hour, even in the rain.The delivery process is interesting: the P2 Zip hovers around 300 feet up, then lowers a smaller container, called the 'delivery zip,' on a tether. This smaller unit uses fan-like thrusters to maneuver precisely into place before gently setting the package down. Both parts use cameras, sensors, and Nvidia chips to navigate and avoid obstacles.Next up, NASA is working on making drone flights safer with an advanced software system designed to predict potential airborne hazards *before* they actually occur. It's called the In-Time Aviation Safety Management System, or IASMS for short. The main idea behind IASMS is real-time risk assessment. Instead of just reacting when something goes wrong, like a loss of navigation or communication, the system aims to anticipate these kinds of threats and alert drone operators ahead of time.Michael Vincent from NASA's Langley Research Center put it simply, saying the system ideally works unnoticed in the background, only intervening right before an unusual situation might arise. NASA has been putting IASMS through its paces. Back on March 5th, they ran extensive simulations at the Ames Research Center. These focused on complex scenarios like hurricane relief missions involving multiple drones doing things like beyond-visual-line-of-sight supply drops and inspections.Next up, Pierce Aerospace just announced a partnership with a company called Skylark Labs, bringing some next-level drone detection tech to the US-Mexico border and beyond. Basically, they've put Pierce's YR1 Remote ID Sensor and other drone detection sensors on Skylark's 100-foot Scout Tower, alongside this tech they are calling "Superintelligence AI."What makes this setup special is that the AI actually learns in real-time from the data it collects in the field, rather than relying on pre-programmed stuff that might be outdated. The system can detect, track, and identify drones and other potential threats, giving border security and law enforcement a much better picture of what's happening both in the air and on the ground. Last up, Seattle-based drone manufacturer BRINC secured $75m in new funding and announced a strategic alliance with Motorola Solutions. The alliance integrates BRINC drones with Motorola's APX radios, VESTA 911 call management systems, Computer Aided Dispatch, and Real-Time Crime Center Software. This means that drones could get dispatched automatically.Join us later for happy hour in the community. We are also BACK for the live Q&A on Monday after a 3-week hiatus due to the move and travel. Post-flight is also back on Monday in the premium community as well.

Innovation: Driving Better Outcomes or Reinforcing the Status Quo? In today's rapidly evolving business landscape, true innovation is more crucial than ever. But what separates genuine innovation from mere change? David Sinkinson, co-founder of AppArmor and author of "Startup Different," offers a thought-provoking perspective: "Innovation is not changes that reinforce the status quo. It's about doing something differently with better outcomes." How can leaders ensure their initiatives truly innovate rather than simply maintain the current state? Are your organization's "innovations" creating value or just shifting it? ------------------------------------------------------------Episode Guide:0:00 - Intro0:59 - What is Innovation?4:25 - Importance of being mission-driven8:43 - Data-driven innovation14:18 - What isn't innovation?19:27 - Innovation's impact on career24:49 - Advice for innovators------------------------------------------------------------Brothers David Sinkinson and Chris Sinkinson are proven SaaS entrepreneurs.

Chris Sinkinson - Entrepreneurship: A Hero's Journey Join me and my guest Chris Sinkinson, Co-Author of Startup Different (startupdifferent.com), and former CTO and Co-Founder of AppArmor. In 2022, AppArmor was acquired by Rave Mobile Safety for $40 million, and later that year, both were acquired for over $550 Million by Motorola Solutions.

Chris shares his experiences of starting a business with his brother, the challenges they faced, and the lessons learned along the way. He emphasizes the need for continuous improvement, the significance of intentionally building a strong company culture, and how empathy can be a powerful tool for leaders. We do a deep dive on the importance of being adaptable and willing to pivot in response to changing circumstances. Takeaways Myth: If it ain't broke, don't fix it (You need to get ahead of stuff breaking or it'll break your business) Why being "tough" in business won't get you far: The direct correlation between empathetic leadership to improved market performance and profitability Starting a business involves debunking many myths and navigating unexpected challenges. Empathy is crucial for effective leadership and team dynamics. Building a strong company culture requires intentional effort and discipline. Hiring should be approached with caution; it's easier to hire than to fire. Continuous improvement is essential for long-term success. Pivots should be strategic and based on market needs, not just reactive. Company culture should reflect the values and operational style of the founders. Engaging with customers can provide valuable insights and motivation for the team. A successful startup often requires multiple attempts before finding the right idea.

Let's talk about a post-military career in professional sales. Business-to-business (B2B) sales is one of the most important functions in the business world. It is where a company that makes a product or service interfaces directly with a customer. As the name suggests, B2B sales is all about selling products and services to other businesses in order to help them meet their professional goals in the market. From a JMO perspective, Sales is also one of the most misunderstood career field categories. When I initially talk to military officers about Sales, I often hear objections such as they do not want to go into a role that is 100% commission, high pressure, and high travel. Additionally, they think sales is a zero-sum game where you have to "do" something to someone in order to win. Business-to-business sales are different. With B2B Sales, your objective is to create a trusting relationship with a customer, demonstrate your credibility in solving their problem or creating value, and deliver a product or solution that helps your customer be more effective in their marketplace. In this episode, you will hear three Cameron-Brooks alumni talk about their post-military career in Professional Sales, their experience as sales professionals, as well as dispel some common myths about the sales profession. You will meet: Bridget Walton, USMC Command and Control 1LT, launched her career at Motorola Solutions. Blake Boyd, Army Armor CPT, launched his career at Abbott. Billy Cattron, Army Infantry CPT, launched his career at Altec. Each of those former military officers attended the January 2019 Cameron-Brooks Career Conference. One of the most interesting aspects of the webcast is that although each of these officers started their career in a different industry, each shared similar experiences about understanding customer needs, creating solutions, and ultimately bringing value. At Cameron-Brooks, we have seen countless numbers of military officers launch their careers in B2B sales. If you want to hear more about a sales career, including career progression and growth, check out podcasts with Aaron Carter, Anthony Applegate, Jonathan Brewer and Connor Pratt! Of course, if you want to know more about how Cameron-Brooks can help you reach your personal and professional goals, you can learn more on our website, LinkedIn, and YouTube, or you can call or email me directly.

Ireland's proposition for FDI investment remains strong, according to IDA Ireland, as it publishes mid-year results for 2024 alongside its latest Annual Report. IDA Ireland continues to deliver an exemplary performance across foreign direct investment indicators as set out in its 2021-2024 strategy Driving Recovery and Sustainable Growth, having exceeded on targets relating to the total number of investments, job approvals, regional investment and number of sustainability projects supported by the agency. In line with this performance, the first six months of this year saw IDA Ireland support 131 investments, 74 of which are planned for regional locations, enabling the future delivery of 8,900 jobs to the economy against an increasingly challenging global operating environment. New investments secured by the inward investment agency since January include Pentagon Technologies, whose state-of-the-art facility in Dundalk will create 100 jobs; automotive fleet manager Element Fleet Management that is to set up a global leasing centre in Dublin creating 70 jobs; Evernorth Health Services, which is to locate a new innovation hub in Galway that will create 100 jobs; and Motorola Solutions, who just today, announced its new global R&D Centre in Cork with plans to recruit 200 highly skilled staff to design technologies vital to the company's global footprint of customers. In addition to companies newly investing in Ireland this year, IDA Ireland has also announced a number of significant, transformative investments of scale from existing clients, such as IBM Ireland's announcement in May that it would create 800 high-value roles across its sites in Dublin, Cork and at its subsidiary Red Hat in Waterford; and Bristol Myers Squibb's $400m investment which will create 350 jobs, bringing the total number employed at its campus in Dublin to over 1,000 people. In its Annual Report 2023, IDA Ireland has called out the imperative of safeguarding the competitiveness of its client base and that of the country as the global FDI landscape becomes increasingly challenging and complex. Ireland needs to remain agile as it evolves and adapts to emerging sectors and a more dynamic and highly competitive global landscape. The agency is committed to continuing to work with stakeholders to ensure ongoing investment and development in areas such as talent, infrastructure and energy supply, which are central to the country's competitiveness and critical to continued FDI success in Ireland. Peter Burke, Minister for Enterprise, Trade & Employment, said: "Ireland continues to be recognised as a highly stable and attractive location for global investment. Our country has a reputation for being agile, with an economy underpinned by a dynamic ecosystem of global companies, indigenous enterprise and academia working in collaboration. Government remains committed to ensuring the right polices are in place to facilitate the development of appropriate skills, infrastructure, and innovation to facilitate strong levels of FDI into the future." Michael Lohan, CEO of IDA Ireland, said, "Ireland's proposition as a location for FDI investment remains strong. Against the backdrop of an intensely competitive global environment and the proliferation of industrial policies, it is imperative that IDA Ireland continues to attract and win new investments whilst at the same time continuing to support existing clients in their investment endeavours across the twin transition of sustainability and digitalisation. "Ireland has a track record of being nimble, demonstrating a level of agility that will be key to ensuring future success. IDA Ireland is partnering with our clients on delivering competitiveness-enhancing, transformative investments concentrating on R&D, digitalisation, sustainability and talent development to ensure the FDI pipeline remains robust." "I am very pleased to have welcomed several investments of significant scale in these areas so far this year that will ...
Motorola Solutions today announced it is opening a new Research and Development Centre in Cork which is expected to generate 200 highly skilled jobs. The team will be focused on designing software for the company's comprehensive land mobile radio (LMR) portfolio, with plans for expansion across other technologies in the future. Following investments of more than $12 billion in R&D and acquisitions over the past decade, Motorola Solutions' ecosystem of technologies is centred on safety and security, with LMR representing a foundational core. The company has deployed more than 13,000 LMR networks worldwide, trusted by governments and enterprises for highly secure communications designed to work in the most extreme conditions. Modernised with broadband and advanced data applications, LMR remains at the forefront of providing public safety agencies with the communications they rely on and need. "Decade after decade, the durability of our mission-critical LMR technology helps protect those who protect us all," said Greg Brown, chairman and CEO, Motorola Solutions. "Our new centre in Cork will contribute to advancing our future vision for LMR, while building upon the collective impact of our more than 20,000 employees who are innovating what's next for our customers around the world." The investment is supported by the Irish Government through IDA Ireland. "Motorola Solutions is an iconic American company known for its work over many decades to support public safety and first responders," said U.S. Ambassador to Ireland Claire D. Cronin. "Today's announcement of its new Research and Development Centre in Cork marks a significant step forward in the company's commitment to Ireland and in further expanding its innovation footprint in technology that plays a vital role around the world to help keep people safe today and in the future. It also recognizes the highly skilled talent in Ireland and further bolsters the strong trade and investment relationships between the United States and Ireland." The new R&D Centre, planned for Cork's vibrant city centre, complements Motorola Solutions' existing footprint in Ireland, which is focused on delivering the emergency services' secure communications network, Ireland's National Digital Radio Service. "It's fantastic news that Motorola Solutions has chosen Cork City for their new global R&D Centre," said Peter Burke TD, Minister for Enterprise, Trade & Employment. "Regional investment is a priority for Government and the creation of 200 highly skilled jobs in R&D is a significant boost for the region. The new Centre will be a welcome addition to the already thriving city centre and will provide exciting new work opportunities for technology talent. It is encouraging to see new investments in R&D technologies, which is very much in line with our National AI and Digital strategies. I want to thank Motorola Solutions for their continued investment in Ireland and I wish all the team the best with this new venture."

Today, we are breaking down Motorola Solutions. This breakdown is a fascinating story of brand versus business, as Motorola was a mainstay on Interbrands' Top 100 Brand list for most of the 2000s. I'm joined by Joseph Shaposhnik, portfolio manager at TCW Group. We discuss how Motorola achieved stealth success over the past 15 years while Apple overtook its iconic flip phone. We also cover how CEO Greg Brown worked with two, and arguably three, activist investors to focus on mission-critical communications, a very specific customer segment, and a more blended hardware-software model. It's a truly great example of a business finding a niche and executing to a T. Please enjoy this Breakdown on Motorola. Register for the Business Breakdowns x Founders Conference.

Welcome back! This episode continues our Post-Conference Review series. As many of you know, Cameron-Brooks holds five Career Conferences per year. After every Career Conference, we lead a webcast with a few of our most recent alumni to let them share their experience with the Conference and the follow-up interview process. Hear some real JMO transition stories. We continue to conduct these webcasts because officers continue to provide feedback on these episodes and how helpful they are. Though everyone's experience through the Cameron-Brooks process differs, our alumni continue to provide valuable insight that will demystify the entire process. In this episode, you will meet: Mikayla Blaska is an Army Infantry Captain, Ranger qualified, who graduated from Princeton University with a BA in Psychology in 2019. She accepted a position with Motorola Solutions as a Territory Sales Finance Manager. Kevin Hanigan is an Air Force F-15E Strike Eagle pilot who graduated from Ohio State University with a BS in Electrical and Computer Engineering in 2012. He accepted a position with Liberty Advisory Group as a Principal Consultant. Gage Wampler is an Army Chemical Captain who graduated from the Virginia Military Academy with a BS in Computer Science in 2019. He accepted a position with Amcor as a Liquid Business Development Account Manager. We tackled a wide array of topics during these real JMO transition stories and most of the questions came from the group who attended the live webcast. What was the best part of the Conference? How do you professionally handle a business interview in a virtual environment when there is more than one person in the room? How do you prepare for back-to-back interviews when meeting different industries, companies, and functional career opportunities? What was the follow-up interview process like? Were there any professional certifications you pursued before the Career Conference that set you apart? Was your college degree a factor in your interviews? What type of training will you receive at your new company? How do you manage the vast amount of information at the Career Conference? We finished with a Lighting Round of questions to ensure that all questions were answered. Overall, it was an informative session, and their experience certainly provided a lot of insight into the process. If you like hearing these real JMO transition stories and are considering what is next for you after the military, give me a call to discuss your options. Often, a short conversation with someone who has seen thousands of officers transition can be helpful in your process. Whether you decide to stay in or get out and regardless of whether you commit to a career in Corporate America, just having a conversation about your future plans and goals can help. If that is you, call me or email me directly to get started. Best, Pete Van Epps || pvanepps@cameron-brooks.com || (210) 874-1519

In the first eight months of 2023, cyberattacks against public safety agencies globally had already surpassed 2022 numbers by over 10%. Police departments and municipalities can be an ideal target for cyber extortionists given the mission-critical nature of their work. The growing frequency and sophistication of attacks such as ransomware and hacktivism that are targeting public safety agencies highlights the need for agencies to come together on cyber threat intelligence sharing now more than ever. In April 2022, Motorola Solutions established the Public Safety Threat Alliance (PSTA), the first Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency or CISA-recognized Information Sharing and Analysis Organization, that serves as a cyber threat intelligence hub for the global public safety community. In this episode of Policing Matters, host Jim Dudley delves into the rising threat of cyberattacks targeting public safety agencies. With insights from Motorola Solutions' experts Jay Kaine and Tony McIntosh, the discussion highlights the increasing sophistication of cyber threats, the establishment of the Public Safety Threat Alliance (PSTA) and practical strategies for agencies to safeguard their systems.

Today we interview three former officers and give you three keys to success! I often get positive feedback on the Post Career Conference reviews webcasts that we do after every Conference. People tell me that it is so helpful to hear the stories of recent Cameron-Brooks alumni as they navigated the Career Conference and Follow-Up Interview Process in order to secure their next career. That is exactly the reason that we introduced these webcasts over three years ago and why we converted the Q&A with the alumni to podcast episodes. It's one thing for me, Pete Van Epps, Cameron-Brooks Career Coach, to explain the process, but it's quite another to hear a few military officers who recently finished the process tell their story. On this episode, I am glad to introduce three of our most recent alumni: Valerie Roberts - Navy Intelligence Lieutenant who accepted a position as an Associate Brand Manager position with Mars, Inc. Beau Hughes - Army Logistics Captain who accepted a position as a Procurement Specialist with HF Sinclair. Rhyan England - Army Air Defense Captain who accepted a position as a Senior Account Manager with Motorola Solutions. Even though this podcast with chocked full with way more than 3 pro tips to find success at the Career Conference, here are three keys to success that you can use in our process to maximize opportunity at the Cameron-Brooks Conference. Read! I know you have probably heard it many times, but leaders are readers. For those officers who have committed to moving from the military to corporate America, I sometimes see them look at a professional business reading list as a "nice to have" as opposed to a "need to have." I think that is the wrong move, at least for the companies and roles that we represent at the Cameron-Brooks Career Conference. At the Conference, officers interview with A-tier companies for open positions that are commensurate with a JMO's leadership experience. The hiring managers and decision-makers that you will meet with typically interview and hire people with industry experience. A professional reading program with necessary books like Good to Great, The Goal and What is Lean Six Sigma will help a military officer quickly bridge the gap between their military experience and the position for which they are interviewing in the business world. Build Rapport - In an interview, the hiring manager or decision-maker isn't just trying to determine if the JMO is qualified. As a matter of fact, oftentimes they go into the interview knowing the person is qualified. In that case, the interview boils down to if the hiring manager can see you fitting in with the team. In other words, they are measuring your attitude (are you a glass have full type?), your enthusiasm, your interest. Successful interviewing isn't just crafting great interview answers - it is also demonstrating interest in the company and position and building rapport. For more on the topic, check out How To Wow by Francis Cole Jones or listen to Joel interview her in Episode 102 of the Cameron-Brooks podcast. Join a Study Group (Practice interviewing!) - one of the most common themes we hear in the post-Conference webcast the just how valuable being a part of a study group is to officers. I often liken a study group to being a part of an athletic team. You don't just show up to the game on Friday night. It starts with the fundamentals, then you run plays, then you introduce a scout team or practice squad to play against. The study group is the same way. The first few meetings are just going through the fundamentals of saying your interview answers out loud. Then, you move to try to answer questions and connect to a specific type of role. Finally, you do some role play or scenario-based "mock interviews" without stopping. While it is difficult to perfectly replicate or predict everything that will happen in an interview (just like you can't predict exactly what your opponent will do on Friday night)...

Welcome back! On this episode, we bring you a Career Conference BTS (Behind the Scenes) as we wrap up our August 2023 Career Conference. We enjoy doing these episodes because it's a bit of a "peek over the fence" as some of our most recent alumni share their experiences through their process and journey. In this episode, we feature: Brad Franke, a former Navy Submarine lieutenant, graduated from the United States with a degree in Economics and Political Science and spent 7 years in the Navy. Brad accepting an Engineering Management position with Edward Lifesciences. Aaron Markey, a former Army Armor captain, graduated from the United States Military Academy with a degree in Engineering Management and spent 6 years in the Army. Aaron accepted an Engineering Team Leadership position with Modine. Hamilton Jones, a former USMC captain, graduated from the United States Naval Academy with a degree in Comparative Politics and spent 6 years in the USMC. Hamilton accepted a position with Senior Account Management position with Motorola Solutions. I was able to lead the team through multiple discussion points, such as your biggest surprise from the Conference, the most valuable thing you did to prepare for the Conference, the follow-up interview process, and how you ultimately chose the company that you going to work for. I really enjoy leading this part of the discussion because it is so rewarding a watch an officer engage in a deep level of preparation before the Conference and then navigate the Career Conference and the follow-up interview process. For the second half of this Conference BTS podcast, the panelists fielded questions from the group who were attending the webcast live. This is always such a valuable part of this webcast because the questions asked likely reflect the questions many of you have regarding your processes and your transition. We will continue to do these post-conference webcasts. Our next Career Conference is November 3-7, 2023 and we'll release the audio and video to the webcast in early December. Until then, best of success! If you want to know more about who we are and what we do, there are a load of resources that you can tap into at cameron-brooks.com.
