The Dynamic Fire Chief: Principles for Organizational Management aims to close the gap between service delivery, which involves managing street-level operations, and the executive-level management required by a five-bugle-wearing CEO. Whether you oversee a paid or volunteer department, the management skills necessary to lead a successful department remain the same.

In today's landscape, fire chiefs assume a multifaceted role, overseeing emergency services, finances, human resources, legal matters, marketing, compliance, vision casting, and succession planning. Many fire service leaders fail to recognize that financial management is the cornerstone of acquiring the resources essential for effective fireground operations.

While most fire chiefs ascend to the top position through their prowess as firefighters and officers, they face challenges due to their lack of formal training in organizational CEO roles. The Dynamic Fire Chief serves as a valuable guide, offering insights and strategies to help fire chiefs navigate some of the more complex aspects of organizational leadership.

Craig A. Haigh, the 2012 Illinois Career Fire Chief of the Year and recipient of the 2019 International Association of Fire Chiefs - Chief Alan Brunacini Executive Safety Award, shares his candid stories of personal triumphs and setbacks spanning his 30+ year career as a fire chief.
