Security Leadership: Integrity, Serving, and Honoring, with Jim McConnell
#028 - In this next episode, I was joined by Jim McConnell. You'll recognize his name if you follow topics on LinkedIn, such as supply chain security, infosec, physical security, and many more. Jim brings tremendous experience to us from his 30+ years of leading and supporting broad security initiatives in the telecom space. He also contributes to the Technical Committee and Working group of the Board of Executive Protection Professionals, developing the first-ever ANSI EP standard. (Thank you for your support, Jim!)
What I love about Jim is his commitment to learning and educating the communities around him, of course online but also in his community, where he helps faith-based organizations, military and law enforcement transitioning to private security, and so much more.
I hope you enjoy this conversation where we touch on every topic, from why you need a resume bucket list to what skills make a security director successful, how security interviewing skills can help you in your career, and so much more!
