We chat to Tracy Phillips, Inspector with the New Zealand police force. Since joining the New Zealand Police in 1990, Tracy has delivered a number of projects beyond the call of duty including mounted police and LGBTI-friendly policies within the organisation. Her work has just been recognised with a New Zealand Order of Merit for services to policing and the community.We hear what it was like joining the police force back in the 90s, when attitudes to women and gay people were vastly different. Passionate about diversity and inclusion, Tracy shares reflections on her incredible work building relationships with local communities and underrepresented groups. We get her thoughts on leadership, and why role models are so important in developing your career.We also chat about Tracy winning a medal at a home Commonwealth Games, what she gets up to in her spare time as an 'active rester', and why police academy is nothing like the TV show! Take a listen to find the true values of public service straight from the frontline.
