Evolution of the Evidence-Based Movement - The Series

Real leadership in the evidence‑based world looks like strategic culture shifts, data-driven decision-making, and agency-wide commitment. In Part 3 of our Evolution of the Evidence‑Based Movement series, Dr. David L. Myers—Professor and Director of the Criminal Justice PhD Program at the University of New Haven—breaks it down. He’s talking strategic culture shifts, using data to drive real-world change, and how agencies—not just individuals—can evolve into evidence-based powerhouses. From probation officers to top-tier academic, his story proves that commitment to research, leadership buy-in, and rigorous follow-through can turn mindset into measurable success.
