Who We Are.

In 2008, we began as a firefighting tactics & leadership company named SAFE Firefighter, LLC. Our mission was to create an agile training group that could adapt to the quickly evolving challenges in fire service tactics and leadership.

Since then, our team has developed training programs & curriculum for religious, private, local, state & military agencies in addition to presenting at numerous local, regional & national events. We have been fortunate to share our experience with, and learn from, thousands of participants.

These experiences showed us that timely and adaptive training, emergency preparedness and leadership development are critical challenges shared by individuals, teams & businesses across all sectors (not just the fire service).

In 2019, we became Kinetic Development Group to better reflect our audience, unify our mission and tackle these dynamic & relentless challenges together.

Our Logo.

Our logo consists of an apple tree, with a single apple, inside a circle.  We chose a tree because, “the beauty of the tree may be visible above the surface; however, the strength of the tree is in its roots.”  It’s representative of the work that is necessary to prepare for a sustainable outcome.

We chose an apple tree because of Sir Isaac Newton’s laws of motion.  To paraphrase; objects in motion stay in motion, and objects at rest will remain at rest unless affected by an external force. 

That “external force” is the voice inside your head, that young rising leader inside your organization or a team of professionals you solicit to help you realize your potential.  It’s where we derive our name and it represents the environment we live, work and play; kinetic.

The single apple represents the laws of motion and the initiation of growth while the circle symbolizes that growth is a persistent cycle.

Finally, our “official” colors are red, white and blue because we are patriots who have dedicated our lives to selflessly serving our nation, our states and our communities through all forms of military and emergency services.
