How to be a good personal bodyguard? (original)

How to be a good bodyguard? Please keep your competitiveness. It is more difficult for people who want to get a job in the security industry than at any time in the past 15 years. Not only new entrants should be worried, because it is difficult for experienced veterans to stay on the track. At the right time, at the right time, it has always been a creepy thing or a huge wealth to let your resume be read by the right people in the right place. The general consensus is that it's more about the people you know than what you know. What's more disturbing is that people you know are often more important than your performance. But the situation is changing, and the three pillars of employment (you know, how well you do and how well you perform) need to be given equal attention. The events of September 11, 2001 prompted the expansion of the security industry worldwide, but no similar event has ever been seen. Since the Second World War, private contractors have not seen such labor migration to the security industry since they found the opportunity to provide security to support the huge industrial infrastructure of the United States. Under the catalysis of the 9 / 11 terrorist incident, Britain and the United States mobilized civilians and concentrated on multiple fronts. As a result, they led the race to provide commercial security services to meet the needs of the war. The desire and demand for capable and experienced personnel create a gold mine of opportunities, and veterans are in a favorable position. The fight against terrorism in Iraq and Afghanistan and, to a lesser extent, anti piracy operations in the Gulf of Aden have contributed to the large-scale flight of experienced law enforcement personnel attracted by the new challenges facing the private security sector. During this war, it was possible to earn a living in the security industry by claiming to have received some form of military / police training alone. The regulations introduced in 2005 did not promote higher standards in the industry. In fact, this is only the lowest threshold for entry into highly competitive industries. Many people in the industry believe that it is this reason that leads to lower standards and lower product quality. Post war changes and uncertainties now occupy a place in 2016. With the withdrawal of war front-line forces, we see a paradigm shift in the industry, and recruiters and customers ask them to pay more. It is increasingly expected that protecting operators must now be highly skilled, multifaceted, dedicated and loyal to security technology. Essentially, the industry is returning to its roots. Nearly a decade after the British government issued regulations, we began to see the re emergence of three core basic elements required for sustainable employment in the industry: ? qualified experience ? full support from peers in the industry ? continuous professional development (CPD). Without these three key assets, bodyguards will be difficult to maintain stable employment. With relevant experience or rich employees, the security company in the industry is enough to ensure that you get continuous job opportunities. But now, in an oversaturated and slowly shrinking industry, these factors themselves will no longer turn the revolving door of work distribution as in the past. In contrast, it is time for all security professionals to fully address all aspects in order to make them the best candidates for any job vacancy. It is time for professional operators at a new level to realize the importance of continuous professional development. Anyone who thinks he can ignore it will fall behind. This is a highly competitive industry, which rewards those who show enthusiasm and passion for personal development. In the workplace, only individuals who rely on self drive and self motivation can adapt to "survival of the fittest", while others who are less enthusiastic about professional development will die out. In the era of continuous professional development, as experienced security experts can tell you, CPD is not invariable, and then archived in the "completed taskbar". This is an ongoing commitment throughout your career. The long-term rewards of being a leader in the field will only be granted to those who are truly committed and committed to being the best. （2） The next part of this article will focus on how to create a framework to achieve competitiveness and achieve a long-term successful career in the bodyguard industry. Determining priorities the first thing you need to do is to prioritize CPD, which means you need to raise it in the priority list and begin to see it as the most important investment in your work every year. This means spending time, energy, money and resources on sustainable development, not anything else. Therefore, it must have the same or higher priority as the funds set aside for your investment, housing decoration or holidays. Remember, CPD is the key to sustainable employment in a highly competitive industry. If you no longer work, you have no salary to take home! After the annual cpd budget survey of many industry professionals, the results vary greatly, ranging from 5% to 20%. Therefore, the reasonable range is around 10-15%. I personally believe that in order to maintain the healthy level of career development, individuals have to pay 10% of reasonable expenses every year. Although the first step on the development ladder is usually the most expensive. For many people, it is surprising that one of the biggest obstacles in the long run is the lack of funds. Abandoning course fees in advance only requires you to be decisive in a short time, but for professional diversity, you need to know investment, focus and dedication. Therefore, in order to successfully pursue professional development, please ensure that you can devote yourself to the process to maximize versatility and return. Take responsibility for yourself and your career by scheduling time in advance. Try to use the plan and be honest with yourself in this way instead of resisting and indifferent, which ensures an effective plan and establishes a positive will to complete your plan. Take action under this framework, you will be ready to participate in training at any time, increase or improve various professional skills, and delay the action dialogue until the opportunity comes, but it is shameful to fail to meet the requirements. It's impossible to be unwilling to make a lot of "financial" plans in such a volatile security industry, which highlights your professional attainments and completion ability, and you are at a disadvantage when opportunities arise. As a professional security operator, how can you ensure that your investment in CPD can bring you positive returns and a more effective career path? Please choose a professional, honest and efficient security company, which is your best guarantee!!! Relatively speaking, information control is still in its infancy. Of course, as long as there is trade and economy, the occupation of private security service will certainly exist or exist in another way with development. However, in the past 15 years, its development has been significant enough to deserve special attention from the government and regulators. However, due to its relatively new state, the industry is expected to continue to develop rapidly. Therefore, it will benefit you to keep up-to-date and competitive. Keeping a keen interest in current affairs will enable you to see the dynamics and direction of the development of global security affairs. Understanding emerging markets, changes, needs, etc. will help you get ahead of your needs in the future. There are many resources and articles about the network, so I won't focus on the overview here. When you are looking for knowledge, the Internet is a double-edged sword, that is, it can let you learn a lot of knowledge and experience shared by your peers, but it will also make you unable to control some information hype and exaggerate the false level. It depends on how you look at it and use and absorb it effectively. Join a professional team, a good company and professional team will make your career more colorful. So that you can follow the experienced and influential leaders in this field and develop on the same platform with a group of like-minded peers. Usually, professional bodyguard companies can help team members maintain the knowledge and participation of the industry. The platform can serve as a good learning center and position acquisition center. By becoming a member of a professional bodyguard company, you can align yourself with the company's core values, information, technology and influence, so please choose carefully! Personal management at the personal and professional levels, remember to be diligent in your self-discipline management. As a professional bodyguard, you must always want to obtain the position in order to achieve benefits. However, you should also consider the following questions: why can I get a position? Why can't others? What are my strengths? What are my shortcomings? I hope every bodyguard should often ask himself when engaged in the security industry, because long-term self-demand and strict management are very difficult, but what can be done is not an excellent and outstanding person? Communication skills regardless of the environment, always maintain efficient communication skills. Needless to say, your communication ability is particularly important at any time. The impression psychological model built between people first depends on communication, which is your greatest wealth. No matter when, where or even what occupation, according to my understanding for many years, communication ability should be put in the first place. Next time, I will write and share the course "effective communication and influence" in the ace bodyguard textbook. In the career of impression assessment, it is not completely "shallow" in image display, which can really make your company, colleagues and customers recognize you. It must be achieved through "deep friendship". In the long-term work, personal behavior and quality cultivation are very important, which not only reflects a person's growth and education environment, It can directly affect the width and length of your life path. When a person is recognized by most people, I believe he gets help and recognition above the positive pole. On the contrary, the negative pole is a bad thing. We often comment on the good and bad impression of some people in our life or work. Then, as a wise person, think about it with transposition thinking. You are the person who is evaluated. How important are your good or bad results and how likely they will affect... Now think again. Do you know the importance of this matter? At present, with the economic development and the perennial development of the international security industry, although the domestic security environment and technical concept support are still in the backward stage. However, over the years, with a number of companies and people who love the security industry and devote themselves to construction, the security construction ecology and market scale have become better and better. The time for change has come. You are in an excellent era and wave of opportunities. We can't predict the future. Seize the moment and keep your dynamic change, renovate or enhance your profession
