18 Feb- As a security professional, you understand the challenge of defining the value of your security program across the organization. You understand the inner workings of each strategy and tactic, but from the outside, it’s difficult to quantify how the work that your team is doing contributes to the organizational bottom line. Join Resolver and ASIS as we discuss practical strategies to help shift the security mindset in your organization. We’ll look at real examples of how industry-leading security teams have optimized their processes to provide more impactful reporting that not only enabled them to prove the value of security to the organization, but also their increase departmental budget.

9 Mar- The impact of implicit bias on physical security can have tremendous consequences. When a security professional must determine who is a threat or who belongs, their decisions and actions might be rooted in unwanted bias. Bias influences our perceptions about others, without our knowledge and consent—and is often misaligned with our personal beliefs and values about equality. It is critical for anyone interfacing with employees, customers, or the public—or anyone with oversight over physical security or a guard force, to be aware of how implicit bias affects our attitudes about others. Sadly, situations in which security professionals made biased judgments have resulted in tragic outcomes from job loss, reputational damage, lawsuits, and loss of life and human dignity. It’s more important than ever for security leaders to be thinking about the role of implicit bias in our industry.
This webinar is presented as part of ASIS Member Appreciation Month and is free and exclusive to ASIS members!
