I had the luxury of working under Mr Sicard’s leadership in the first few years of my career. In one’s career, there’s a few landmark moments which can alter the trajectory of one’s path. Partaking in Mr Sicard’s Leadership Development Program was one of those landmark moments that spear headed me into a path of intellectual and professional curiosity. Four years ago, Mr Sicard and I sat down, and we created a career plan, which has outlasted the test of time. To date, I still review this career plan and take value and direction from the wisdom provided by Mr Sicard’s years of experience and willingness to care and nurture. He did this whilst competing with the rigmarole of commanding. Thus, the style and characteristics of Mr Sicard’s leadership can be eloquently summed up with the below quote.

“A leader … is like a shepherd. He stays behind the flock, letting the most nimble go out ahead, whereupon the others follow, not realizing that all along they are being directed from behind.” – Nelson Mandela

A leader that clearly cares for his people and is not afraid to create a culture of well-being. Allan is a leader of influence and his values are care for others has made life so much more enjoyable and rewarding for so many.

Steve Van Zwieten – Managing Director of Exact Security

Allan’s role as a leader and as a mentor to those around him is an example to all, not just the challenges but the professional rewards of having the courage to lead. A  fascinating and insightful read [Courage to Lead: Resilience and Compasson in Police Command] that peels back the curtain on a lifetime in uniform protecting the community.
