Ethics and characteristics of private bodyguards

From the perspective of personal protection, we must not ignore the theme, that is, activities between people. The activity is initiated by someone who needs professionally trained bodyguards to protect them, and the protection is planned and provided by another "someone". The key point of the course is "training", which is based on the morality and characteristics of the protector. This is an important foundation for all men and women seeking to serve as personal protection experts - this is the internalization of the ethics and characteristics of the "fifth profession". We live in interesting times. Honor, once a concept of virtue, now only means merit, just like belonging to the honor Association. The aspects of not lying, not cheating or not stealing no longer seem to be included as originally defined. Where is our correct example today? At the other end of the balance of good and evil, even the major organized criminals who were once proud of the "code of honor" now lament that there is no more honor, only greed and malice. In just a few decades, our society has passed the message to high school and college graduates, "find the road to success through honor, morality, virtue, values and discipline; and become a valuable member of society." for one of them, "go out and share your pie." what pie? The pie of consumerism, high salary with low work standards, and no concern for others or society. "If there is a problem, accident or accident, it's not my fault. Don't blame me, it must be someone else's fault. I can't be responsible, and I refuse to take any responsibility." this is often contemporary information. In addition, many people believe that today's students' education exceeds their intellectual level and ability to understand the purpose of education. These are obstacles that need solutions. Each of us has personal power. The power of choice, what we do, and how we will let events affect us. "The power of thought is infinite, but the muscle is limited." – Koichi tohei's trait is wonderful. It depends on individual interpretation. Of course, all of us believe that we have the necessary characteristics to succeed in the efforts we choose. How else is that possible? On the other hand, what specific characteristics are needed to successfully provide personal protection to the client. This is one of the first points of discussion for many people who want to participate in bodyguard work. Work is like this, although many people cannot understand the complete definition of "hall and wall", the long and lonely nights in outdoor posts, the impact of lack of sleep on personal judgment, and the reality of the combination of fatigue and stress. I recommend you to read the complete and magnificent message to Garcia written by Elbert hub bard in 1899. This is not book learning, nor is it the guidance of various topics, but the spinal sclerosis required to make successful people loyal to trust, act quickly and concentrate. All bodyguards in protective positions must believe that they have the ability to protect others, and when they are asked to do so successfully, they must believe in themselves and be prepared to do what needs to be done, Preventing attacks, giving first aid to accidental injuries or avoiding embarrassing your customers are positive or good self. "The more you work hard, the faster and stronger you will be." - Bruce Lee's "high self-esteem" comes from those who think they are ready for personal protection, because they have held other security or law enforcement positions and have never taken the time to understand what professional bodyguards really need. We found that in providing personal protection, as in providing most security services, an individual's claimed ability is based on service in another occupation with other characteristics and skill requirements. Somehow, this is usually combined with a minimum level of general training to make an individual honestly believe that he / she can perform the services they promote. In fact, most brochures and letterheads in the security or protection services industry list many professional areas, many of which require long-term training and practical experience alone. Remember, it's easy to print or make your own business cards, stationery, or brochures on a personal computer. The security industry and protection services have been growing rapidly in recent years. The characteristics of bodyguards are individual, so it is difficult to isolate their sense of value in this field clearly and concretely. Many features are required, for example, here are some of the most important features. Trait definition has strong adaptability and can adapt to the changing environment. If you feel uncomfortable in some environment, please learn to adapt. If you are polite, you will achieve more for your customers and win respect for yourself. Dedicated, credible to your responsibility, not because you were told to do it, but because you saw it had to be done and you did it. Ethics, set high standards for your behavior. Flexibility, ability to accept changes and respond correctly. Noble, honest, right and wrong; Perform your duties. Loyalty to your bodyguard company and customers. Self discipline, can meet your needs and hope to obey your performance obligations. Thoroughness, focus, do what you have to do and tell you what you will do. Many men / women employed in the bodyguard field or trying to enter the bodyguard field will never know why they can't succeed. Careful consideration of this list reveals many aspects of these features. They are not the definition of "bumper sticker", but need to be seriously considered. For example, if reliability is an important feature, every action you take will be judged, not just those you think are important. Also remember, "man" is the only creature on earth that can ask for trouble. Lao Tzu defines ethics, principles, morality, values, virtue and "situational ethics". As for the morality and values in the bodyguard industry, we are faced with the dilemma of personal behavior, definition and interpretation. If we can agree on a specific definition, we can limit the interpretation or judgment of our behavior to a narrower scope. The essence of providing personal protection is service, providing professional bodyguard services for our employers to protect the safety and security of all aspects of functions. If we only care about the mechanical aspects of movement and physical protection, we will not care about behavior. Behavior is governed by behavior attributes, which may be guided by our values, and we have internalized those beliefs in the thinking process that guides our behavior. The most important thing for all of us is to understand the impact of a solid foundation of morality and values on our role and behavior as protectors. In many cases, how a bodyguard performs his duties is clearly as important as his achievements. The code of ethical conduct is our own internal autonomy code, which can help us: 1. Always act in the most professional way. 2. Pursue personal excellence. 3. Demonstrate a high standard of personal integrity. 4. Protect and respect the privileged information disclosed to us in the performance of our duties. 5. Avoid activities or interests that conflict with the performance of our duties. In the world of professional bodyguards, we rely on personal values developed through training, education, background, family members, friends, peers and adopted social values. These values and mature morality are difficult to change or transform into predetermined behavior patterns. We did not develop performance concepts and technologies, nor did we threaten or fear sanctions. Professional performance is judged without other behavior patterns or performance standards. Instructional technology currently focuses on performing examples or role model behavior. But gradually, by properly enforcing personal protection, we will reach higher standards and be proud of our achievements and recognized professional performance. Our goal is to acquire the knowledge system. Obviously, for various reasons, many people will be employed by professional bodyguard companies. Most of these reasons may be attributed to fantasy, finance or fame, and the excitement of the lifestyle of people considered to protect others. Performance requirements will not be considered too much; First, you need to clearly understand what the discipline is about - and what it is not about. The reality of participating in the first program is the first step towards the career direction of bodyguards, and is aware of the need for continuous adaptation and education or training throughout the career performance of bodyguards. As with all career attempts, in a group of winners, the ranking is divided into any top 10% and bottom 10%. Those who have achieved the top 1% position in the field of bodyguards have several common characteristics. They are fully committed to what they do. Their attitude is positive, expressed clearly, and recognized by others through their performance. They understand and practice good communication skills by not reading other people's words, their own personal reactions, but realizing that they must consider each other's meaning; They listen more than they speak; They ask the right questions; They never assume that everyone knows what they're talking about. Winners realize that there can be no effective communication without clear understanding. In personal protection, communication ability is extremely important. Failure to understand and abide by the rules will lead to problems. Eventually, you will "succeed" and succeed in this very old but now reborn bodyguard profession. Be responsible and control yourself, constantly aware of what may happen and how you are prepared to deal with it. The principles of protecting the industry were formulated many centuries ago, but like new bottles of old wine on the shelf, we constantly re-examine and improve protection measures. Some bottles will break, some will deteriorate, but most are acceptable and consumable. Professional bodyguards pursue the real top 1% performers. They will become antiques, which is a rare but achievable consumption level. Finally, in order to win, you must put yourself in the skin of your opponent! If you don't know yourself, you will lose 100% of your time! If you know yourself, you will win 50% of your time! If you know yourself and your opponent, you will win 100%!
