I am the Fire Chief Now What: Avoiding the Legal "Hot Seat"

This webinar will assist new or existing fire chiefs in making decisions during the first 100 days of 2026. It outlines the key considerations for the first day, the first week, the first month, and the months two through six. Additionally, it offers advice and cautions for new or interim chiefs to help them avoid common mistakes. To steer clear of legal pitfalls, fire chiefs must rigorously adhere to conflict-of-interest laws, implement strong anti-discrimination and anti-harassment policies, and ensure meticulous compliance with all federal, state, and local regulations.
