We believe that a key skill of the
Certified Church Security Specialist is a
solid understanding of executive
protection as it pertains to a churches pastors, artist and special guest.
Book Review:
Executive Protection: "New Solutions for a New Era", is an excellent
follow-up to Mr. Oatman's first book "The Art of Executive Protection." I
have over 15 years of federal law enforcement experience, several of which
were spent on a high-profile protection detail. I know that the concepts of
executive protection have changed since the tragic events of 9/11. This book
builds upon the foundation set forth in "The Art of Executive Protection"
and sets out a clear path to follow in the post 9/11 era. This book is
written in an easy to follow, no non-sense approach. It provides basic and
advanced concepts of protection, along with real life experiences and best
practices. This approach reinforces those principles and makes them easy to
understand and conceptualize. In addition, this book gives you an added
bonus, access to on-line Advance Checklists, that can be used daily in
carrying out your protective missions.
Robert L. Oatman, is a true professional who writes from personal
experience. He provides valuable insights and lessons learned that have been
developed over his career as a executive protection specialist. A very
important theme that runs through both of Mr. Oatman's books focuses on the
idea that, in executive protection, it is not the equipment that preserve's
the principal's life but the training, perseverance, and brain power of the
EP specialist. I recommend that anyone who is interested in becoming or is
already an executive protection specialist, pick up a copy of this book,
exercise their brain power and learn from one of the best.
