Public relations expert JamesLukaszewskibrings a new and

positive spin to crisiscommunication in thisbook. He dismissessome older beliefs andteachings and replacesthem with newer con-cepts, guidance, tools,and solutions developedover his decades of ex-perience in the field ofcrisis communication. The booktakes into consideration the rapidchanges we are living with todayand advises readers on how tocope with them. It urges readersto prepare CEOs for unexpectedevents long before they might hap-pen, and arms readers with insighton how to speak to executives—including keywords that will gettheir attention.The book provides the frame-

work for building an effective crisismanagement program, beginningwith identification of existing vul-nerabilities and potential risks. Agood crisis communication pro-gram will have crucial messagesprepared ahead of time, and exec-utives and spokespersons will havepracticed the plan in advance.Victim recognition and han-

dling are crucial to a successfulcrisis response, and the book out-lines strat egies for doing so. Thesestrategies can reduce litigation andsave money in the long run. Theauthor also offers detailed adviceon important topics such as deal-ing with the news media, pressconferences, and social media.

Case studies throughout the bookillustrate these concepts.The book is written in clear

and plain language, very directand therefore easy to understand.The book is a must-read for thoseinvolved in crisis management, inaddition to every serious securitypractitioner and human resourcesprofessional.

One is Too Many: Recognizingand Preventing Workplace Violence. By Robert D. Sollars.BookBaby. Available from Kobo;store.kobobooks.com; $9.99.

Workplace violence is atopic that resonates tosome degree with any-

one who works in any aspect ofsecurity. Today, that term canprompt the vision of wanton de-struction and death in any of sev-eral settings: the suburban officepark, the urban industrial plant,and even schools and college cam-puses. While workplace violencecan and often does produce suchimages, this societal issue escapeseasy quantification or ready solu-tion. As Sollars notes in this e-book, workplace violence “canhappen anywhere, for any reason,at any time to anyone.”With such a broad charter, Sol-

lars addresses the challenge ofworkplace violence by establishinga scope, then defining warningsigns, and closing with detailedsuggestions for prevention tacticsand strategies.

This e-book is both unique anda bit quirky. I have grappled withhow to best describe this readingexperience, and concluded thatreading One is Too Many is analogousto an afternoon conversation witha crusty, yet wise, older uncle. Toappreciate the wisdom to be foundin such a conversation, one mustoverlook the uncle’s little foiblesand idiosyncrasies. In this book,readers will also encounter format-ting issues, a nonstandard ap-proach to citations, and a mysteri-ous tendency to cite unusualstatistics. That said, if readers

maintain a focus onthe important issue ofworkplace violencebeing addressed by awell-qualified securityprofessional—insteadof annoying format-ting and grammar is-sues—they will be re-warded with seriousservings of practicaladvice and groundedknowledge.Sollars has claimed

the title of “the blind securityguy” and asserts “I may be blindbut I still have vision.” In regardsto workplace violence, that visionincludes his assessment that “Pre-venting Workplace Violence, con-trary to what many experts willtell you, is not complicated. Whatit is, is time consuming and [de-tail] oriented…a matter of gather-ing facts, sorting details, planning,and connecting the dots.”Sollars highlights the impact of

domestic violence as a precursorto much workplace violence andargues for greater awareness bycoworkers and supervisors alike.He acknowledges the ongoing im-pact of bullying in many forms asan early warning sign for work-place violence. His discussion ofpolicies and procedures is espe-cially insightful—noting that secu-rity is the biggest element of pol-icy you will confront whenactively seeking to prevent work-place violence. Aware of the ten-dency to overwrite policy andprocedures he warns, “you haveto be able to use your own com-mon sense, as well as the policiesand procedures when dealing withemployees.” The net assessment of One is

Too Many is this: It is worth your

while to spend some timewith the blind securityguy. The visit requires areader to be forgiving ofminor irritants, but Sollarsshares credible advice ona topic that is of continu-ing concern.

The Effective Security Officer’sTraining Manual, Third Edition.By Ralph Brislin, CPP. Butter-worth-Heinemann; Availablefrom ASIS; asisonline.org; Item#2213; 336 pages; $65 (members);$71 (nonmembers).

n effective security forcemust be well trained andknowledgeable about

how to deal with all kinds of se-curity issues. The Effective SecurityOfficer’s Training Manual providesone place to start in developing atraining program. Security person-nel would certainly benefit frommuch of the material laidout in its 34 chapters.Much of what security offi-cers are required to knowis detailed here, includingethics, elements of profes-sionalism, cultural diver-sity, legal elements, personswith special needs, andworkplace violence. In ad-dition, there are discussionquestions at the end ofmost chapters aimed at increasingreader comprehension. The pub-lisher also provides additionaltraining material with online com-panion materials, as well as in-structor support materials. With-out a doubt, security personnelwould benefit from the knowledgecontained therein. The book is not without short-

comings. Chapters vary wildly inlength, which can make it a chal-lenge for instructors to teach thematerial. In addition, references goback 40 years and more. Of course

some fundamentals within the se-curity industry never change, butthe book would benefit from athorough updating. A clear expla-nation of how the content is tobe delivered to the student and adiscussion of testing procedureswould have been excellent addi-tions. Are trainees to read thebook and answer the questions on their own, in a group, or in aclass? Information on effectivetraining procedures could enhancethe factual information containedin the book. It is extremely disappointing to

read the author’s perspective ofthe events of September 11, 2001,about the “American citizens…civilians and American soldiers”who died since 9-11. The fact isthat this is not just an Americanissue. People from more than 90countries perished, and soldiersand civilians from a score ofcountries have died in subsequentmilitary actions. For example,Canada lost 158 Canadian militarypersonnel, and another 3,028deaths from coalition forces weresustained. The author introduces

the sad facts of9-11 to discussthe importantrole that securitypersonnel canplay in protect-ing people andproperty; byconcentrating onthe Americanperspective, hemisses an oppor-

tunity to educate security person-nel that they are part of a globalcoalition and not just a local effort.It is a disservice to all the coun-tries around the world fightingterrorism.

ASIS Members 1967-StyleIn the June 1967 issue of IndustrialSecurity—an ASIS precursor publica-tion of today’s Security Management—the results of a survey were reportedthat provided an interesting pictureof the Society’s membership at thattime. The average member was 46years old and had been a memberfor five years. On the educationalfront, 42 percent had graduated fromcollege, 18 percent held educationaldegrees, and 49 percent had attendedspecial security courses.Concerning salaries, 37 percent

indicated they earned more than$25,000 per year, with the averagesalary at $13,923. In response to thequestion on job titles, 42 differenttitles were given, with di-rector of security andsafety, security officer, andcorporate security officeras the top three.Two questions solicited

details on the corporatepositioning of security in1967. The first asked towhom the head of secu-rity reported. Of thosewho answered, 44 percentsaid the head of securityreported to the president(top official) or vice presi-dent of the company. Along list resulted from aquestion asking the “prin-cipal area of operations”of the subject’s employer,other than government.

Answers covered 39 industries withonly two—aerospace/aircraft/missilesand electronics—in double digits.The purchasing authority and

purchasing power of the member-ship were also surveyed. Approxi-mately 40 percent reported having“full authority” to purchase securityequipment, supplies, and services,but not capital equipment. Basedon survey results, it was concludedthat the 1967 ASIS industrial secu-rity executive was primarily re-sponsible for purchases of securityequipment, supplies, and servicestotaling more than $48 million.By comparison, spending for se-

curity in the United States increasedto $410 billion in 2014—up from $388billion in 2013. In addition, the lastASIS salary survey in 2012 revealedthat the median compensation forsecurity professionals in the UnitedStates increased 2 percent from 2011to $102,000, while the average annualcompensation increased 14 percentto $121,000. In addition, respondentswho had a Certified ProtectionProfessional® (CPP) certification,

administered by ASIS, reported amedian compensation of $111,000,and an average of $130,000—8 per-cent higher than the average for thesurvey population at large. Thesurvey reflected the responses of1,438 U.S. members of ASIS.In the parlance of the swinging

60s, “We’ve come a long way,baby.”

Councils Keep ClimbingWe leave the 1960s to reconnoiterin the 1990s—a time when ASIScouncils (then mainly called com-mittees) were burgeoning andwhen volunteer leaders used theirexperience on a council as aspringboard to the Board of Direc-tors. Every Society president duringthe decade had experience gleanedby membership on a council priorto his or her term of office.Councils expanded in number

and in scope during the decade.For instance, security architectureand engineering was previouslyaddressed by a subcommittee ofthe Physical Security Committee.In 1990, it stood on its own, devel-oping workshops, writing articles,and giving session presentations atthe Annual Seminar and Exhibits.The Ad Hoc Committee on

Gam ing and Wagering put on itsown workshop in 1996 in conjunc-tion with the World Gaming Con-

60 Years:Windows to ASIS’s Past

THIS ISSUE, we continueto reflect on 60 yearsof ASIS Internationalhistory with a look at

the average Society memberin 1967 and the expansion andefforts of ASIS councils in the1990s.

The ASIS Physical Security Committee meets during the Atlanta Seminar and Exhibits in 1982.

gress and Exhibition in Las Vegas,Nevada. Based on this success, itbecame a permanent standing com-mittee and continued to provide asecurity education component tothe World Gaming Congress.The Business Practices Council

was formed in 1994 at the behestof Chad Rea, CPP, who served asASIS president in 1993. The coun-cil grew out of a two-day meetingof 35 security practitioners. A coregroup continued to meet, exploringmanagement disciplines that per-tained to security. Later in the dec -ade, the council prepared a bench-marking proposal, led workshopson security management strategiesand practices, published five vol-umes of the Security Business PracticesReference, and more.A main focus in the 1990s was

education, especially through ses-sions at the Annual Seminar andExhibits and stand-alone workshops.A 1990 workshop, for example, tooka look behind the headlines at theTylenol drug tampering case, inwhich seven people died. Duringthe same year, the Substance AbuseCommittee held a three-day work-shop, during which government andindustry speakers provided statisticsand solutions, but the most rivetingmaterial came from two formerdrug addicts who spoke to the at-tendees. Both stressed the impor-tance of employer intervention inbreaking the drug-use cycle.And already the push toward

globalism had begun and commit-tees held events outside the UnitedStates. The Privacy and PersonnelInformation Management Commit-tee was one group who did this,joining forces with Scandinavianchapters to run a workshop onhiring quality employees.Today, ASIS has 34 active and

hard-working councils. What hasn’tchanged is that these ASIS councilsrequire new ideas and perspectivesfrom Society members who wantto join them in doing research andother projects that move the indus-try forward. For more informationabout ASIS councils, visit asison-line.org. �

AS I S DY NAM IC S16

Q: How did you wind up working insecurity?A: After working for CSIS, Iserved as deputy director, corporatesecurity, at Laval University, and aschief of safety at Sobeys, beforejoining GSK Vaccines in 2007. In2013, I moved to Belgium to behead of security and was promotedlast June to director of security andcrisis and continuity management.

Q: What do you know now that youwish you had known at the start of yoursecurity career?A: As women, we are always wor-rying. During my 20s, I worriedthat any decision I made wouldhave irrevocable consequences andthere was only one path. The truthis that there are many paths andwhat looks like a setback todaymay next year turn out well.What’s more important is makinga difference and really affecting theworld around you.

Q: Did you have to overcome any obsta-cles, perceptions, or stereotypes to get towhere you are now?A: Yes, indeed. But, if I believe insomething, then other people willtoo. It’s about selling yourself. Pa-tience and listening are very impor-

tant in this career. If you want tobe a good manager, you have tolisten to your team.

Q: Can you describe a typical day inyour current role?A: One of the best things aboutmy role is that no day is the sameand in the space of an hour youcan find yourself talking aboutsuch diverse topics as security, riskmanagement, investigation, businesscontinuity planning, budgets, andmore. Many people have said tome that the security director’s roleis the best job in the world, and itonly took a few days here for meto agree with them. I feel incrediblyhonored and fortunate to be in thisposition and especially, as a NorthAmerican, being able to work inBelgium and discover Europe!My working day now starts

around 7:15 a.m. I like to get intothe office early to clear e-mails andprepare. I make a few phone callsearly, as it’s the best time to getpeople. Most of my day is spent invarious meetings or small groupdiscussions. I’m not the biggest fanof meetings but they are a necessarypart of my job. My favorite bits ofthe job are when I get to spendtime with my team or with indi-

viduals, working on plans to makeour department more effective anddeliver our objectives. I also reallyenjoy giving what is hopefully clearand direct feedback and helpingpeople t0 get insight into their per-sonal and professional development.I also value the time I spend

with colleagues in other parts ofthe organization. I have a role toplay on the European leadershipteam and I also stay connectedwith my counterparts in theUnited Kingdom. I mentor and, aswell as the great satisfaction I getfrom being involved in the careersof these talented individuals, it alsohelps me stay connected to a partof the business that I still have ahuge passion for.

Q: How have you been able to succeedin your current position?A: My leitmotif is “alone to gofaster but together to go further.”

Q: What advice do you have aboutworking with senior executives and stake-holders outside of security?A: Be prepared to stretch beyondyour comfort zone; have the confi-dence that you can do the job andtake risks. I also put time into myagenda for myself. When you are

always in crisis mode, it’s not good.I take time to refocus on my career,my team, my vision, and myself.Even if I just take an hour for my-self it is worth it.

Q: What is the best advice you’ve everreceived?A: Trust yourself.

Q: What do you think the next genera-tion of security leaders will wrestle withthe most?A: This is a big industry and weneed to understand that the securityprofession is more than guard serv-ice and uniforms. Security practition-ers who expect to make a differencemust demonstrate business acumen,people skills, and the ability to man-age and communicate well withothers verbally and in writing. Com-panies are taking more risk to getmore market share and the securityrisks have become more complex.When it comes to women in

leadership roles, I have found thatwomen prefer leading rather thanruling and have more interactiverelationships with their teams. So,why aren’t there more women inthe security industry? I think thatwomen tend to wait until they haveall the skills sought for a position be-fore they apply for a role. Men tendto feel they are qualified if they havehalf the skills noted in a job posting.Here some tips for women seek-

ing a career in the field of security:Focus on special interests such asrisk management, protection serv-ices, technology, or governance;believe you are as talented as yourmale counterparts; don’t get boggeddown in the mechanics of security;consider mentoring; and network.

Q: What activities or interests do you pur-sue outside of work and how important arethey to maintaining your equilibrium?A: Time flies when you’re havingfun! So I’m trying to maintain ahealthy work/life balance by travel-ling around Europe, drinking goodwines, reading books, Skypingwith my children and parentsevery weekend, and eating healthymeals. �

Senior security executives dis-cussed ways that informationtechnology will affect their

businesses and watched and re-sponded to a hacking scenario thatmade the cost of cybersecuritybreaches all too clear during a se-ries of interactive, CSO-only ses-sions held at the ASIS International6th Middle East Security Confer-ence and Exhibition in Dubai,United Arab Emirates. ASIS President Dave N. Tyson,

CPP, senior director of informa-tion security and CISO of S.C.Johnson & Son, kicked off theopening panel presentation, “Infor-mation as an Asset.” The sessionlooked at the ways in which acompany’s digital assets require aCSO to understand, and havesome responsibility for mitigatingrisk to these assets. Tyson, alongwith Pramod Bhatt, director of se-curity and intelligence with Sanofi,discussed emerging risks from theuse of social media, Bring YourOwn Device policies, generationaldifferences, and economic espi-onage. Tyson’s session was followed by

Ben Downton, principal securityconsultant with MWR InfoSecu-rity. During “The CybersecurityBreach: Live,” Downton providedattendees with a scenario in whichtheir organizations suffered a hackand each group chose a preferredresponse as the scenario continuedto worsen. Based on the majorityof answers, the scenario moved indifferent directions, and attendeescould see first-hand the likely re-sult of their decisions. There wereno right or wrong answers, onlydifferent actions depending onwhether the company was moreinterested in responding to the at-tack, getting business up and run-

ning again, or other options. A session on brand and reputa-

tion delved more deeply into theways that a security-related inci-dent, whether physical or cyber,could damage an organization’sreputation, and how CSOs couldbest prepare to respond. Ben Mur-rell, CPP, security manager (Africa,Middle East, Mediterran ean, Aus-trala) with Transocean Drilling,and John Seawright, director ofsafety and security, Carnegie Mel-lon University in Qatar, were thepanelists. The interactive audiencediscussion covered a wide range ofthreats, from social media postings

that went viral to active-shooterincidents. The final session looked at

ways in which the private andpublic sector partners in the re-gion and across the world cancome together to protect criticalnational infrastructure. Led by fa-cilitator Andy Davis, CPP, manag-ing director, Trident Manor Ltd.,panelists Todd Smithson, CSO,Thales Australia; Mike Edgerton,CPP, Good Harbour InternationalConsulting; and David Fairnie,G4S Critical Infrastructure, madethe case for robust partnershipswith the public sector.
