Executive Protection – EP Operations Center

Doc Rogers, Featured Articles

By: Doc Rogers

On larger and/or multi-principal international assignments, you may be requested to set up an operations center (OC). This is a hotel room with the beds removed and working tables and several folding chairs brought in. This room is not for sleeping or comfort; it’s the OC.

It should have computers, charts, briefing boards, maps from the area where the assignment is taking place, CNN Headline News for a source of continuous intelligence gathering, phones and radios for communicating with agents and security drivers in the field. This will give them a heads-up on any local situation or immediately pass along an important development as well as giving them an area to conduct tactical conferences.

Communication from the OC should be excellent to avoid any confusion or communication breakdowns. The personnel in the ops center need to have the ability to communicate with the agents and security drivers. OC personnel need to work together to resolve any problems and have an in-depth understanding of what is require by the agents in the field. The personnel should listen more than they talk to build good working relationships and should have the ability to work harmoniously with the EPU (executive protection unit) in the field.

Executive Protection Training During Tough Financial Times

By Doc Rogers

The current recession has made us all re-think our spending habits. For many agents the logical solution for their financial relief is to make tough cutbacks.

This could mean postponing the purchase of that new model firearm, that tactical folder knife, or going out on the town with your team mates. However, this should not include training. Agents should improve and hone their skills. This will ensure that every step you take in the industry, you will be prepared to succeed.

Be known as the one who is always building and updating skills, and who works harder than anyone else. Ramp-up your training when the going gets tough. Improve the skills you already have, deepen your industry credentials by reading books and manuals, industry related newsletters, magazines, as well as taking distance learning courses to stay on top.

These suggestions will not only improve your work product in the field, but will be creating solid experience and and achievement in this industry. Before investing in a book, magazine, newsletter or distance learning course, ensure that the training you take will be a contribution and is necessary to the well-being of your principles, or clients, as well as the EPU (executive protection unit).

How to be successful in the field of Executive Protection

Featured Articles

In the 15 years I have worked in the realm of executive protection the number one question I get from individuals attempting to break into the field is, “How have you been successful in this field?”

To be completely frank, there is no special secret. In order to succeed you have to network and get out and rattle the bushes. In addition, you have to be hungry. The more people you talk with and the more business cards you pass out it is more likely you will succeed, start to find clients, and build a customer base.

When you network with people it is also important to know your craft, stay current on security related and executive protection trends and issues, and understand not just the physical attributes of the job but also understand how the current unstable financial markets create criminal enterprises to thrive; such as the current situation in Mexico where kidnappings for profit have increased by 85% in the last year. These factors can drive the need for experienced and qualified executive protection specialists.  By knowing this type of information you will be able to hold a conversation while networking, thus allowing you to provide expert insight into the field.
