Maybe getting to know the person behind the star and rank and the 2,3,4 departments and examples of leadership ability. It's easy to bow up and act confident "meet me in my office" in a very biased environment of your assigned office. What about a neutral environment? With just a camera and mic (the visible, honest type a journalist uses)? Without a uniform, a badge, or rank, nothing to come between the truth and unbiased exchange of views on a variety of topics.
