The Different Animal that is Law Enforcement and Corporate Security Leadership!

CORPORATE SECURITY UNIVERSITY sits down with STAN PARTLOW, CPP https://www.linkedin.com/in/stan-partlow-cpp-0394aa1b9/, from RELENTLESS EFFORT, and the author of "LEADING RELENTLESSLY," https://www.amazon.com/Leading-Relentlessly-Stan-Partlow/dp/B0CH2FX4Y7/ref=sr_1_2?crid=1U75LSL420C3M&keywords=stan+partlow&qid=1701795512&s=books&sprefix=stan+partlow%2Cstripbooks%2C161&sr=1-2  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," https://www.amazon.com/Leading-Relentlessly-Stan-Partlow/dp/B0CH2FX4Y7/ref=sr_1_2?crid=1U75LSL420C3M&keywords=stan+partlow&qid=1701795512&s=books&sprefix=stan+partlow%2Cstripbooks%2C161&sr=1-2 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 โ€œThe art of developing relationships with others to influence them to achieve a common goal. We cannot simply copy someone elseโ€™s leadership style and expect to achieve their level of success. LEADERSHIP IS AS UNIQUE TO US AS OUR FINGERPRINTS. Sound leadership starts with Living Relentlesslyโ€”understanding 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.
