The last thing Bob wanted was executive protection . . .

With insights only lived experience can provide, seasoned security pro Christian West shares lessons learned from years of protecting some of corporate America's most prominent people.

In a profession that is inherently up-close and personal with the principal, the ultimate success and sustainability of a protective program hinges directly on the selection, training, and management of the right staff. The Protective Circle provides guiding principles on how to conceive, build, and run successful executive protection programs for companies, family offices, and high-net-worth individuals.

From the foundations of contemporary corporate executive protection to managing a protection program, Christian gives insight into key queries that clients and practitioners need to ask and answer:

Why companies and family offices establish EP programs How to set up and manage quality protective programs - and troubleshoot or turn around underperforming ones Which roles a stakeholder in the protective ecosystem plays What to outsource, what to insource, and how to find the right service partners

Executive protection is a people business. With illustrative, real-world cases of what executive protection professionals actually do, this guide will help you optimize your program and your people for success.

Reviews for The Protective Circle: A Comprehensive Framework for Executive Protection Excellence

"""The Protective Circle is an important book for anyone involved in delivering, managing, or receiving executive protection. It's a terrific optimization of Christian's first two books with critical NEW updates and additional material. The content in this book plays an important, unique role in the industry - teaching people how to start, fix, and run professional executive protection programs. These important concepts are delivered in a streamlined format that helps readers actually use and implement them. Christian has always had uncanny passion and intuition about protecting people. The Protective Circle is a masterclass I consider to be required reading for anyone in, or thinking of joining, the executive protection industry."" -Brian Jantzen, Strategic Advisor, Builder, Coach, Co-author of Corporate Executive Protection and Public Figures, Private Lives ""Christian is clearly the ""Master of Executive Protection."" From a new EP manager in a corporate setting to an experienced Security Professional, there's a lot to learn here regardless of your background. Practicing the principles identified in The Protective Circle will give you a competitive advantage over others who think EP is nothing more than being a ""bodyguard."" The Protective Circle professionalizes the EP industry and gives you recognition as an expert. As expected from Christian, all the elements of professional EP are here for you to embrace and understand. Assess your EP knowledge before and after reading The Protective Circle to mark the growth it entails. You may wonder, How do I sell this to the principal or to company management? Don't worry, it's all here."" -Ray O'Hara, Protection Professional ""When we entered the US market in 2017, our primary concerns were understanding the industry landscape and identifying the influencers driving the success of the top EP teams. The Protective Circle is a comprehensive guide to everything we wish we had known at the outset. It demystifies the industry's workings and illustrates how its various components interconnect. I highly recommend The Protective Circle to any agent aspiring to leadership and entrepreneurs aiming to enter the Executive Protection industry. It offers invaluable insights that will save readers time and effort by elucidating the framework behind the country's most effective EP teams."" -Pablo Ortiz-Monasterio, Founder of AS3 Driver Training"
