Course Overview
Security arrangements around organisational resilience are tested by adversaries, not by auditors. Guard force performance on the corporate security practice capability reflects supervision, not instruction. The course covers this area of corporate security practice at the level of detail needed to act, and stops there. Participants test their assumptions about organisational resilience against scenarios designed to break weak ones. Participants develop a defensible line of reasoning for the choices they make about this strand of corporate security practice. It is appropriate for those preparing to take on wider responsibility for this part of corporate security practice. Across sectors, teams that rehearse organisational resilience outperform teams that only plan it. Progress on the wider corporate security practice agenda is usually lost in the gap between approval and execution. The final session converts the week's work on this part of corporate security practice into commitments with owners and dates.
