2011 Highly Commended Security Management

“To receive the Highly Commended Award in the field of Security Management at the 2011 Security Industry Awards for Excellence was an amazing surprise, especially considering the number of security professionals in this field. This award will motivate me to continue my mentoring and leadership development plan with the Safety & Security Team at Panthers Group and to change the perceptions of the general public as well as the regulatory authorities of the crowd control industry. I would like to thank ASIAL and the Committee for the award and will ensure that moving forward I will continue to educate individuals on the level of professionalism in our industry and benefits we provide to our local communities. To be nominated by one of my team members and reading the submission prepared was a humbling experience.
