Executive Protection and Business Protocol

Recently we mentioned how intertwined executive protection and business protocol/ etiquette are. Today we look at a specific example that is all too common.

Executive Protection and Business Protocol

One of the important aspects of executive protection is how improper business protocol and etiquette can impact an executive protection assignment. And we bring this up because it all comes back to training. A training that leaves out proper business protocol puts you in jeopardy.

How Executive Protection and Business Protocol clashed on assignment.

Executive Protection and Business Protocol - how case gets unraveledWe were out on an assignment where there were executive protection agents from more than one agency, and are on a private jet somewhere over Europe on the way back to California. And the client we were charged with protecting is pacing around the cabin looking for a magazine. Looking behind the bar, moving the snacks. “Where is my magazine?”
Real life: You get on a commercial flight and there are public magazines for anyone to look at.
Executive Protection: This is not the case and you never help yourself to ANY client belongings.
By now, you can guess who had been reading the magazine. The client spots the magazine rolled up and stuffed between the airplane seats where the executive protection agent (from another agency) is sitting. And he never said a single word.
This agent, who lives in California, was kicked off the plane at a stop in Spain.
Fired. (and it’s likely it was a long trip back to the states for a good agent, left untrained in executive protection and business protocol.)
Executive Protection Training - A Guide to EPAnd for good reason. You don’t touch client belongings.
It’s the little things like this that trips up executive protection agents in the real world. Even if you have been protecting the same client for 20 years, they are a client, not a friend, and you do not break protocol.
Ever.

This should have been covered in training.

We touch on business etiquette in our basic training and cover it fully in our “all-in-one” training.

Church Security in Orlando

Church security in OrlandoSecurity in private Orlando businesses is nothing new. Many businesses, from banks to convenience stores to veterinary centers and more, use security guards.
But now guards are also taking root in surprising places.

Church Security in Orlando – Security and Active Shooter Training

While many Orlando area churches began investigating their security options, many have begun scaling up their security efforts, even before the recent attack the sadly took 49 lives.
Before you hire an everyday security company, know that ESS Global has trained places of worship in over 60 countries. 

More than anyone else, we know church and fellowship security. 

Church Security in Orlando, Tampa , Miami and MoreESS Global Corp offers professional “faith-based” Florida church security in Orlando, Tampa and throughout Florida, the US and globally.
We are saddened by recent violent events and our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the deceased.
Over 420 people have died in incidents involving deadly force at churches and other faith organizations in America since 1999, as detailed by noted church security expert Carl Chinn and reported in a 2013 issue of SBC LIFE, the journal of the Southern Baptist Convention Executive Committee.
If you’ve followed the news the past two years, you know that number has risen dramatically.
The SBC Life article recommended ways churches can protect themselves against violent intruders.

  • Perform a professional security analysis for activities throughout the week and at services.
  • Assess unmonitored entryways to the church on Sundays or during other activities including day care, Bible studies, and more where someone could enter and hide.
  • Consider hiring a security firm to provide armed security during all church events.

Church Security in Orlando – Church Security Training

Church Security in Orlando FloridaFor pastors, priests, rabbis, religious leaders, teachers, and their staff members, security and safety should be on top of their minds. Churches, and other houses of worship face a unique set of security challenges and are all subject to crime and violence. Church Security and Safety should be a priority in all Churches and Houses of Worship. If there are no security plans and security improvements made, this leads to vulnerability, and when you least expect it, an event occurs.
ESS Global Corp Church Security Training
How effective is our faith based church security training? On August 3, 2015, ESS Global Corp received a letter from Brandon White, Executive Pastor at Without Walls International Church in Tampa, Florida.

“As a large church in the Tampa Bay community, the safety and security of the attending congregation is held in the highest regards, which should never be marginalized as a second thought. One of the greatest aspects of the training was the full assurance of complete understanding before introducing any new concepts, terminology, or practical application revealed the desire your team has to help others in achieving their goals. In addition, you have gone above and beyond by offering your services for future follow up sessions to ensure proper implementation, which is a genuine characteristic of both your integrity and ethical uprightness.”

ESS Global – Tampa Bay Security Guards

ESS Global, a leader in security services in over 60 countries, provides professional Tampa Bay Security Guards, for government, commercial, educational and non-profit entities. 

ESS Global – Tampa Bay Security Guards

tampa bay security guardsWhen business owners think about hiring security guards, one of their first thoughts is “how well are they trained?”, because when you take a hard look at security, it’s all about the training.
Forty-one states (including Florida), plus the District of Columbia, license security officers, but requirements vary greatly from state to state. While nine states—Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, South Dakota and Wyoming—do not license security officers at the state level, all while some cities within them do.
There is no national standard.
But let’s talk about Florida. Here in Tampa Bay security guards are regulated by the Florida Department of Agriculture, under current director Adam Putnam. Here are the current licenses Security Licenses that Florida grants.

  • “D” – Security Officer: Any individual who performs the services of a security officer must have a Class “D” license.
  • “M” or “MB” – Manager of a Security Agency: A Class “B” Security Agency or Class “BB” or “AB” branch office must have a Class “M” or Class “MB” licensed manager.
  • “G” – Statewide Firearm license: Only Class “D,” Class “M,” or Class “MB” licensees are permitted to bear a firearm and any such licensee who bears a firearm must also have a Class “G” license.
  • “K” – Firearms Instructor: Any person who provides classroom and range instruction to applicants for Class “G” licensure must have a Class “K” license.
  • “DI” – Security Officer Instructor: Any person who provides classroom instruction to applicants for Class “D” licensure must have a Class “DI” license.

So yes. In Florida both armed (G) and unarmed (D) Security Guards are licensed by the State, through the Department of Agriculture. 

What About the Security Guard Schools?

That would be the Security Training. Who regulates that? Who teaches this “G” and “D” stuff?
In a word, Nobody.
florida g license classes in tampaNobody looks over the training syllabus. Nobody oversees what’s being taught. Nobody monitors what is said. Except….
At ESS Global, our Tampa Bay Security Guards are trained for the two required Florida security guard licenses (D,G) at our own school here at ESS and it’s the only security school in the state of Florida that is certified and approved by the Florida Department of Education.
