๐ Welcome to the Corporate Security University Podcast!
In this episode, "Can Someone from Security Ascend to a Senior Business Role?" we dive into a heated discussion on the potential for security professionals to climb the corporate ladder to the CEO position. ๐ Join your hosts, Carlos Francisco, CPP, CSSP, and Scot Walker, PCI, alongside guest speaker David Weiner, MPsy, with Secure Measures, as they unravel the complexities and challenges security leaders face in the corporate world.
๐ Episode Highlights:
Introduction to the Debate: Carlos and Scot kick things off with a controversial topic they almost didn't record! They brought in guest David Weiner from Secure Measures to weigh in on the debate.
๐ The Heart of the Matter: Scot shares his observation that security professionals are often not seen as business professionals due to their specialized focus. He raises the question: Can someone from a security background ascend to a senior business role?
๐ค Different Perspectives: Carlos offers a counterpoint, citing examples from the hospitality and entertainment industries where security managers have moved up to general management roles. However, he acknowledges the tech industry presents a tougher climb.
โฐ๏ธ Industry Insights: David Weiner adds depth to the discussion by highlighting the transition challenges for security professionals, especially those coming from government roles, and the importance of understanding business risks.
๐ก The Road to the C-Suite: The group discusses the rarity of security professionals in CEO positions and on boards of directors, contemplating the barriers and biases that might contribute to this situation.
๐ง Embracing Our Role: Scot and David encourage security professionals to embrace their expertise and focus on contributing to business success from a security standpoint, rather than chasing titles.
๐ A Glimmer of Hope: David offers a perspective on the possibility of breaking into top executive roles by embracing and understanding the broader business landscape.
โจ Conclusion: Carlos wraps up the episode with thoughts on personal growth, the value of open-mindedness, and the importance of embracing one's role in the corporate structure.๐

Corporate Security University sits down with Stan Partlow, CPP, from Relentless Effort, and the author of "Leading Relentlessly," to break down the difficult nuances of going from Law Enforcement to Corporate Security. We talk about Leadership in Corporate Security, L.A.P.D. (Life After Police Department), and the relentless effort needed to transition, Resumes, Keyword scan systems, and a little bit more about "So, You Want to Get into Corporate Security?"
His book "Leading Relentlessly," covers:
How do you want to be remembered as a leader?
The workplace is undergoing a huge transformation and with that, leadership is being redefined. Stan defines leadership as โThe art of developing relationships with others to influence them to achieve a common goal. We cannot simply copy someone elseโs leadership style and expect to achieve their level of success. Leadership is as unique to us as our fingerprints. Sound leadership starts with Living Relentlesslyโunderstanding exactly the person you want to be and building the personal traits and habits that outwardly demonstrate those qualities to the people around you.
Clarifying your legacy will guide you as you build your leadership legacy. As a leader, where do you focus your efforts? How do you create buy-in from your team? How do you measure success?"Leading Relentlessly challenges you to be deliberate in your thinking about leadership. It will help you align your personal and professional lives to create a sense of true fulfillment as you build a leadership legacy that will be carried forward by those you serve as leaders.
Relentless Effort LLC is a practice dedicated to helping people live their best personal and professional lives. The practice is based upon the belief that meaningful change at the personal or organizational level requires Relentless Effort. Stan is an experienced executive with 40 years of law enforcement and security experience. Served as a senior leader in a large metropolitan law enforcement agency and as the Vice President and Chief Security Officer in one of the largest Electric Utility companies in the United States.
