There were a lot of unknowns that we dealt with in 2020 and I am sure there will be more challenges in 2021 and beyond. As we look forward, I am confident 2021 will be a good year for our organization and Law Enforcement as a whole. I was pleasantly surprised to see that although we were navigating a pandemic, the demand for our classes did not waver. My time as President of the Association has presented many challenges and many memorable moments. Overall, I am proud to have served during these unprecedented times and with a Dominic Rizzi, Jr. great group of leaders. President, FBI-LEEDA In a few short months, I will turn the reigns over to our next Board President, Joe Wellington, who will step in to help guide the Association in fulfilling our mission to our law en- forcement leaders. The Association is on solid footing as a premier leadership training association. The demand for our classes remains high and we have a great team that is dedicated to our mission. It is comforting to know that the Association I have served for the past six years is helping train current and future leaders to handle the leadership challenges that we will face in 2021 and beyond. For that, I am proud and humbled to have served as your President. My tenure as President started at our successful Virginia Beach training conference where I was wel- comed to the office by Chief John Horsman, who is now serving his last year on our Board as Past President. As 2019 closed, the Association recognized unprecedented growth in our leadership classes, having reached over 10,000 students with our in-person classes, online learning, and annual training conference. We had reached a milestone that our founding members may never have foreseen. As we entered 2020, we embarked on our search for a new Executive Director to lead the Association. We were fortunate to have a great pool of candidates ready to take the position and we began in earnest to find the right person for the job. But there were bigger challenges in our near future. Much of FBI-LEEDA’s business was interrupted by the pandemic in early March 2020 and continued throughout the year. The pandemic not only delayed our Executive Director search, but it also forced us to cancel our annual conference and annual membership meeting. The pandemic of 2020 cast our Executive Board into unchartered waters, with exceptional challenges in doing what was best for the Association and what was fair to all our stakeholders. As I look back on the decisions we made during that time, I am proud of how we came together as a team and carefully considered the best path for- ward for the Association. As I am writing this, there is still uncertainty in how long the pandemic will be affecting our business, however, I am confident that our leadership is strong, and we have the best team in place to guide our Association forward. As for our Executive Director search, we completed the process and identified an exceptional candidate for the job. In November, we welcomed Mr. Perry Tarrant to our team as the Executive Director. He has a strong leadership background and brings a diverse set of skills and experiences to our Association. I look forward to working with Perry for the remainder of my tenure on the Executive Board. In closing, I am looking forward to seeing you all in Fort Lauderdale at our conference at the end of April. Know that we cautiously are moving forward with planning for this in-person event and have contingencies in place for almost any circumstances, so we can bring this valuable educational experi- ence to our membership. Dominic Rizzi, Jr. President, FBI-LEEDA 2 Executive Director’s Welcome January 2021 Greetings to the members, Life Members, and new members of FBI-LEEDA. I am Perry Tarrant pleased to join you as your Executive Director. FBI-LEEDA is an impressive orga- Executive Director, nization dedicated to supporting law enforcement CEOs and developing leaders.
