Responsible for guarding the lives of important persons, executive protection specialists must defend against a variety of possible dangers. They concern themselves with kidnappings, carjackings, ecoterrorism, and other forms of violence against companies and their executives. Moreover, they must make their clients and their families feel comfortable as security procedures become more extensive.
Executive protection specialists often possess significant training in law enforcement, organizational strategy, and research. They study their clients to determine how their placement in the organization might affect the likelihood of a problematic situation, and investigate threatening letters and phone calls. These professionals are also able to recognize suspicious persons while blending into the executive's world so as not to be identified as a protection specialist.
