Read an excerpt — The Hardest Step in a Security Career
Of all the transitions a security professional will experience, none is more disorienting—or more consequential—than the move from Security Officer to Security Manager. On the surface it can look like a straightforward promotion: a new title, a modest pay rise, perhaps a private office or a seat at the management table. But beneath the surface, it represents something far more demanding. It is a fundamental shift in identity, in purpose, and in how success itself is defined.
