Whitman has over 30 years of experience in law enforcement. He previously was the Police Commissioner in York, PA (2003-2010), Police Commissioner in Troy, NY (1996-2003), and the Police Chief in Hornell, NY (1975-1996). He has taught at ��Ӱֱ�� State since 2013.

Reviews of the book have been positive.

“Burnout is a real problem that affects all law enforcement officers at some point in their careers. Mark Whitman’s book explains how burnout occurs, and he gives the reader the tools to overcome it. In addition, he delves into the concepts of empathy and compassion, two areas that modern police leaders sorely need to understand to ensure their success. I highly recommend this book to all leaders who want to fully understand burnout and learn how to effectively develop strategies to deal with it within their agencies.”Ron Camacho

“As a business professional I found this fact-filled book to be extremely well written with some very sound pragmatic solutions to navigate through stressful situations and circumstances. Also woven throughout are some great leadership tips and some insightful views on how to become a better manager and an improved awareness of how I was contributing to my own subordinates' stresses. A must read!”Joe Perzia
