Leadership on the Line: A Global Perspective on Fire Service Culture

Sept. 16, 2015
Burton Clark talks with Curt Varone about lawsuits, fire officer duties and international perspectives.

Dr. Burton Clark and Curt Varone talk about a myriad of fire service topics.

When Varone was head of NFPA's Public Fire Protection Division, he was able to travel around the world to get a global perspective on the fire service culture.  From firefighter safety and fire prevention to LODDs and command styles, Varone provides interesting discussion. 

The two also discuss the potential for future lawsuits against home builders in the wake of fire deaths in homes with new construction.

Varone talks about his days as a chief officer when Clark's main effort was to push firefighters to use seatbelts.
