Executive Protection Skills Gaps | Steve Hernandez & Craig McKim

Beyond the 'hard' and 'soft' EP skills debate what are employers
really looking for today? Can they afford to be selective during
what some have described as a shortage of qualified candidates?


We are delighted to be joined by Steve Hernandez, CEO, The North
Group and Craig McKim, Co-Founder, Maverick Protection group to
ask:


Will we start to recruit from non-typical sectors to develop
tomorrow's EP team?

What do 'technology skills' actually look like in the context
of protection?

How marked is the gap between operator and business owner
skillsets?

Is there a skillset gap or actually a lack of available
candidates?

Are some 'soft' skills actually key 'hard' skills today?
