THE FIRST LINE · TIKTOK SERIES

Two units. Four leaders. One connected story.

Sergeant Reed and Corporal Torres lead one unit with a direct, accountability-first approach. Sergeant Hayes and Corporal Mercer lead another through coaching, questions, and development.

The series is moving toward connected correctional stories where both teams face realistic shift problems, compare different leadership choices, and show how judgment, follow-through, and employee development shape the outcome.
