About the role
A corporate security manager protects people, facilities, information and operations without obstructing the business. This interview explores how you assess risk, oversee guarding and technology, direct investigations and influence leaders.

- Prepare an example of improving a guarding contract through standards, inspections and corrective action.
- Think through an investigation that required confidentiality, evidence handling and careful stakeholder communication.
