Security Officers and Supervisors: 150 Things You Should Know presents an array of relevant topics, including addressing “Tips of the Trade” in how to manage a team of professionals and serve as an effective supervisor. This includes both keeping management informed of decisions, aligning policy, procedure, and training with business objectives, and hiring and managing a team of professionals to maintain continuity of operations and a safe, secure environment. There are many factors involved in managing a department and workforce and the book uses a handy-reference format to present the salient information, both concrete knowledge as well as the softer skills, required for managers to motivate individuals and lead teams to pull in the same direction.

Short, easy-to-read chapters include lists of relevant definitions, some do’s and don’ts, best practices, emerging trends, and well as example case studies based upon the authors’ professional experience. The primary goal is to provide a foundation for readers to identify, comprehend, and apply management concepts and security principles in their own environments so that readers will be readily prepared to troubleshoot problems and overcome challenges.

Building and leading a trusted team that can set and achieve clearly outlined objectives begins with leadership. Security Officers and Supervisors: 150 Things You Should Know outlines those principles and traits required for professionals to succeed when promoted (though, more often than not, thrust!) into a security supervisory role.
