ABOUT THE BOOK

You can purchase the book here.

Deliberate De-escalation: The Guide Book for Public Safety Professionals Who Encounter Conflict is the debut book of retired Denver Police Detective Tyrone Campbell.

With more and more public safety agencies being critiqued not only on the mechanics of a Tactical Response, but also on how they respond to and manage situations, this topic has never been more important.

In truth, the conduct of our public safety professionals could be the difference between success, an embarrassing place in the national spotlight, or where they sit in the courtroom.

For that reason, with methods that have been refined by three decades of service and thousands of hours of in-person training sessions, this book was intentionally designed to be a comprehensive guide on how to succeed at achieving de-escalation again, and again, and again.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

As a nationally-recognized educator, Detective Campbell has been providing training for over 30 years. He has numerous advanced certifications and has worked broadly in investigative units dedicated to complex investigations, including Homicide and examining de-escalation tactics. With his extensive knowledge in areas related to Interviewing, Hostage Negotiation, and Crisis Intervention Training, and as the CEO for CallBox Training, providing services across various different industries, he is uniquely qualified to tackle this topic.
