Premier Risk Solutions LLC (PRS) has created a new, fresh approach towards the Executive Protection industry, embracing the ongoing evolution within the field. After listening to a cross-representation of select end-users and subject matter experts, we have carefully considered the current and future opportunities identified, reflecting the continuous evolution of market demands and expectations.
We have also analyzed gaps in the marketplace that highlight the evolution of the qualities required of individual agents on Executive Protection assignments, as well as what the industry is already doing at a high level in response to this evolution. Based on their experience working with Executive Protection providers, these experts emphasize the importance of evolving skill sets and evolving standards, identifying the top five areas that are most critical for agents in this evolving landscape:
- High-Level Professionalism & Appearance
- Ability to Communicate at All Levels
- Experienced Personnel
- Responsiveness
- Flexible and Adaptable
Evolution of Excecutive Protection
In short summary, these five qualities are required for an ideal candidate for Executive Protection agent positions can be summed up as highly trained, situationally aware, emotionally intelligent individuals who represent and carry themselves (and ergo their employer and client/principal) extremely well. Often the hard skills associated with the job (concealed weapons permit, education, previous training and related) are easy to identify through the talent selection process. It is the soft skills and emotional intelligence which are much more difficult to quantify and clarify with a level of certainty. We believe this is where the greatest opportunity for fitting the client needs rests.
PRS has developed our own Personalized Culture FitTM program that utilizes science of self methodologies creating custom job benchmarks for our staff to integrate into our client’s corporate culture and structure.
Using the PRS Meridian ModelTM, PRS’s senior management team will gain insight into unique needs and culture-specific tailoring to our approach in the evolution of providing Executive Protection services. We are able to provide our client with a robust concept of how an Executive Protection program deployed can offset and/or prevent organizational strife during challenging times of a minor, moderate, or major incident. Our model details ten (10) categories of consideration and discussion with our client to help articulate the value of an Executive Protection program.
In doing so, PRS and our client obtain a deeper relationship with each other to employ best practices and show true value to the client organization. Utilization of the Personalized Culture FitTM program is our unique approach to talent selection. We can provide validated and reliable empirical data that has been proven EEOC & OFCCP compliant to ascertain Behaviors, Driving Forces, Acumen Capacity Index, and Competencies for each job benchmark/role identified for the final candidates to be considered for the position. In doing so, we can provide an additional level of comfort and definitiveness to our clients that the final candidate(s) selected for the role(s) will be a great match. The longer-term implications for this include reduced turnover, higher job satisfaction, engaged employees, and a more satisfied client when the proper fit is established and maintained. Bottom line, relationships matter, and knowing our client’s unique needs for consistency and reliability is of utmost importance to PRS and the next evolution in Executive Protection.
