Qualities needed for success, and much more. Security is a well-respected industry relied on across the world to protect privately owned most valuable commodities; people, property and services. Private Security demands a unique blend of various qualities. Even to people with former careers in law-enforcement, military and/or corrections have found it challenging. Because of the qualities needed, simply doing your best sometimes isn't good enough, and often falls short of the expected level of quality and commitment. This contributes to turnover. Although it's impossible to train for every scenario, however, being professional starts with you. It has nothing do with your job, pay, or status. Security providers, clients, customers and the general public expect security officers to uphold the tradition of respect, commitment and professionalism it was built on. Because of a few, the industry has been tarnished and oftentimes played out in the media as lazy slobs sitting around all day watching monitors while making poor judgment decisions. Do not mistake this media portrayal. This is far from the norm, plus it discredits the industry and officers who are professional. But it's up to the security officers to change it. There's no magic. If the process of excelling in the security industry appears to be complex, it's really simple. It's straight forward. You need to know what's expected, understand how things work, how to conduct yourself, and be prepared. And the moment you fully understand and accept it, you will be on your way to becoming the person everyone and the Industry expects - a Security Professional. If you have the desire, don't take the industry for granted. Get help! Let the Security Professional get you there. Roy Wyatt has been managing almost 30 years with a proven track record of experience in Security Operations, Management and Procedures.
