A video and summary of this session is available here.

This session is sponsored by the International Foundation for Protection Officers https://www.ifpo.org/

We have been hearing a lot in previous webinars about the role of the security officer as the visible face of the whole sector. We have also heard about how many have performed distinctly in the crisis working dedicatedly and efficiently on the frontline. Yet, sadly, some it seems have been unsupported and thrown into situations they were not prepared for. How difficult is it? Has the widespread availability of more data to inform frontline work and the increasing array of technologies available improved the abilities of frontline workers, or has it overwhelmed them?

What makes the role of the security officer difficult? How complex is it?
How is the security officer role being enhanced or undermined?
What will the role of the security officer look like going forward?

Panellists:
Sandi Davies – Executive Director at International Foundation for Protection Officers (USA)
Joop Verdonk – Managing Director at European Security Academy (Netherlands)
David Ward – CEO at Ward Security (UK)
Joachim Ritter – Chairman at Interr (Switzerland)
