Written by Connected Conversations | Dec 24, 2025 1:03:34 PM

What does it really take to rebuild trust after it's been broken?

In Part 2 of this powerful conversation, Connected Conversations host Elena Petrova continues her discussion with Jason P. Armstrong, retired police chief and founder of Armstrong Consulting, diving deeper into accountability, community healing, and leadership under pressure.

This episode explores why trust collapses when history is ignored, how flawed accountability systems damage credibility, and why human connection—not policy alone - is the foundation of sustainable change.

🟢 Key Themes:

  • How historical trauma shapes present-day community distrust

  • Why accountability systems must be transparent and human-centered

  • Mediation and dialogue as alternatives to traditional complaint processes

  • The role of communication and empathy in rebuilding credibility

  • The “Community Pi” and P.I.E. model: Partnerships, Innovation, Empowerment

  • Leadership decisions rooted in values, self-care, and long-term impact
