Many celebrities hire security teams. You’ve seen it before: a public figure surrounded by bodyguards, on their way to an event—or dining with security personnel at the next table.
These security staff work to protect the client from unwanted attention and potential safety threats.
Celebrities aren’t the only people who need this type of protection. Public figures like CEOs and other well-known executives may choose to hire security as well. This is where executive protection services come in.
What Are Executive Protection Services?
Not unlike celebrities, high-profile executives may struggle with overeager fans, disgruntled workers, or frustrated people who disagree with the company’s policies.
Enter executive protection, which offers security for a company’s CEO and other business leaders. Many Fortune 500 and even smaller, regional companies have come to recognize the benefits of executive protection services.
The idea behind these programs is to protect executives at their company headquarters, on corporate trips, and even at home. By developing a plan of action for all the risks top executives might face, these services can help even the busiest people cover all their bases.
The Benefits of Executive Protection
The benefits of executive protection services are expansive and include:
Increased productivity
Executives are busy. Rather than taking time out of their day to mitigate potential safety risks, they can outsource their executive protection services (and focus on their core tasks).
Shareholder protection
If something were to happen to a company’s CEO, investors will almost certainly be affected. Share prices may grow volatile, making executive protection even more essential.
Additional benefits of executive protection services include safer travel, higher discretion, and immediate medical assistance when necessary.
