About this listen
Assistant Chief Christopher Zak talks with Peter Matthews about his retirement from the Milford, CT, Fire Department and transition to a new career in Hanahan, SC. He moved to become a training office and has since promoted to assistant chief.
Zak talks about the decision to call an end to his first fire service career and how a Google search took him to South Carolina, plus the conversations and insight he sought from trusted and unknown fire service leaders. After that 700-mile move, Zak found himself in a new department, new city and with a phone void of contacts to help him navigate his duties.
Learn how the leap of faith has led Zak to a renewed sense of commitment to the fire service and why it’s important to look at other agencies if you are ready to move on in the fire service.
