Establish what evidence would demonstrate that security team leadership is under control.
Effective Leadership of Security and Guarding Teams
Develop the judgement and the documentation needed to run security team leadership properly.
Course Overview
Guard force performance on security team leadership reflects supervision, not instruction. A control on this strand of corporate security practice that is never exercised is an assumption, not a defence. Work is grounded in real cases drawn from the practice within corporate security practice, which each participant adapts to conditions in their own organisation. The course sets out a working method for security team leadership that participants can apply the week they return. Most organisations already have a policy on this aspect of corporate security practice; far fewer can show it working. It is appropriate for those preparing to take on wider responsibility for the practice within corporate security practice. They leave able to brief senior management on security team leadership in terms that support a decision. Post-incident reviews keep identifying weaknesses in this part of corporate security practice that were visible long before the incident. The final session converts the week's work on the corporate security practice capability into commitments with owners and dates.
