Better Leaders. Stronger Organizations.
Recruitment and retention challenges. Organizational burnout. Leadership gaps. Strategic plans that stall. Public safety leaders face complex organizational problems that rarely respond to one-size-fits-all solutions.
FR Strategies combines real-world fire and EMS leadership experience with organizational psychology and evidence-based research to strengthen leadership, improve organizational culture, and help good people stay.
what makes us different
We're led by organizational psychologist, Dr. Andrew Holter, who uses advanced practice in qualitative and quantitative research methods to produce the best final product available. We approach things differently, using evidence-based practices and proven methodologies, we are not just guessing. We use validated measures and scientifically defensible practices to learn and extract more to provide each client a unique and custom solution.

“The information provided through our customized leadership assessment was essential in the reshaping of our management structure. It gave us detailed feedback from our leadership team that confirmed some assumptions we had made and also shined a new light on some issues we had not considered. The external validation provided in our report from FR Strategies ensured fairness and transparency in our operational structure changes. The assessment, report, and presentation from Dr. Holter were critical to the success of our organization's future."
