Private Security Firm Partnerships
Identity-Driven Leadership & Development Support for Supervisors, Site Leaders, and Security Officers
The Unspoken Realities of the Private Security Industry
Every district manager, supervisor, and security director knows these are true — even if they’re rarely voiced:
1. Officers are hired for appearance, not capability
Most officers serve as a deterrent presence, not a trained protector.
Uniforms are meant to look official, but many officers lack the training to confidently handle real conflict.
2. Firms must low-bid contracts to stay competitive
Low bids mean:
- lower pay
- limited training
- minimal supervision
- restricted resources
This forces firms to prioritize coverage over capability.
3. Training is extremely limited and inconsistent
The standard process is:
- Watch orientation videos
- Grab a uniform off the rack (wrong size or not)
- Get a post assignment
- Stand post
This pipeline creates officers who are technically “qualified” but not prepared for:
- conflict
- threat behavior
- emotional people
- verbal aggression
- crisis decision-making
- professional presence
4. Officers operate alone with little leadership support
Most officers work solo at client sites.
Leadership rarely sees them unless there’s a staffing issue or a complaint.
Supervisors and district managers simply don’t have the bandwidth for actual development.
5. Client employees often don’t respect the security team
They view officers as:
- “extras”
- “warm bodies”
- “a necessary checkbox”
- “a false sense of safety”
This crushes morale and undermines the officer’s confidence.
6. Everything works… until conflict hits
When a real incident unfolds, many officers:
- freeze
- escalate unnecessarily
- make ego-driven decisions
- panic
- shut down
- protect themselves instead of others
Under stress, lack of development becomes obvious — and dangerous.
7. Turnover hides deeper systemic problems
Officers come and go constantly.
Often, the ones staying long-term are doing so because they’re comfortable — not because they are committed professionals.
High-performers leave for better pay or career advancement.
Low-performers often remain because it’s easy and stable.
8. The industry operates with enormous liability and minimal development
Officers are the frontline protectors for hospitals, schools, retail centers, and corporate HQs — yet often receive less development than entry-level employees in other industries.
This is not a training issue.
This is a leadership and identity issue.
