First, follow the link and watch the TED Talk featuring Yves Morieux, a French management consultant. Pay
particular attention to his thoughts near the end of his presentation.
After watching the talk, please read the attached monograph written by former police chief Tom Koby discussing
police accountability and the idea of a Value Based Behavior System.
With those as background, please discuss your reactions to what Chief Koby did and advocates. Though coming
from very different worlds (both professionally and geographically), how do Mr. Morieux’s ideas relate to Chief
Koby’s? What problems might exist in adopting an approach like this for policing? Can we overcome the
obstacles and make Koby’s approach work in a real-life setting? Should we?
