Chief Jason Caughey discusses the importance of gaining perspective in the fire service by actively seeking out new ideas and approaches from different departments. He emphasizes the need to honor tradition while leading change, and encourages firefighters to explore, learn from others, and utilize technology and research. By attending national conferences and stepping out of comfort zones, firefighters can grow both individually and as an organization. Caughey challenges firefighters to reach out, investigate the world and continuously seek improvement.
