The effective protection of a school, university, or healthcare organization requires its top public safety/emergency management/security executive to possess a unique skillset. No one knows this better than the past winners of the Campus Safety Director of the Year awards program. That’s why we’ve asked several of them to join us on the Campus Safety Online Summit keynote panel, November 30, 10 a.m. – 11 a.m. Eastern.
Using examples from the work that won them the honor of Director of the Year, they will discuss the various strategies they’ve incorporated to foster internal and external stakeholder support for their departments, people, projects, and equipment. The online panel presentation will be on November 30, 10 a.m. – 11 a.m. Eastern.
