Director of Government Outreach for nSide.io "The School Safety Platform" & Former Alabama State House of Representatives District 7 2018-2022
This is a great point. So many, "so-called experts", with no on the ground, Experience, Training or Education. Being an ex-cop, military operator, surveillance, or technology engineer doesn't mean you are an "expert" in the educational setting. Each state's laws, and policy, vary wildly, and each local district and campus have unique hazards and cultural differences that must be taken into account. You can't possibly know all those differences without having worked daily in that school. At the same time, I would encourage local school leaders to build relationships beyond their knowledge and experiences. Most schools don't even know were they are let alone where to go next. A good baseline assessment to see where your school safety stands is a good way to start. There is no one-stop solution, to school safety so we all need to seek out knowledge, best practices and admit that we aren't experts. School Safety is a big job even on the smallest of school campuses. But the one thing everyone needs is to get focused and organized. So many times the biggest issue we see is lack of organization and collaboration of efforts. One person trying to do it ALL or many people doing different things with very little communication or collaboration. This leads to many gaps in communications and duplication of efforts in many areas. Getting focused and organized means involving the right personnel and external partners, collaborating with those partners in the identification of hazards/threats that should lead to a detailed planning process that includes proper training, drills and exercises at all levels. If this is done well, it will lead to the acquisition of practical security infrastructure that complements your plans and enhances your response to threats and/or actual emergencies, rather than buying shiny objects. There are many moving parts to building your school's "culture of safety". Frankly we don't all need to be experts,, but, it must start with simply getting the right people to the table and being organized enough to get them working together. Find the right partners and tools to get organized. nSide.io
Director of Security Little Rock School District🔒Zero Now National Council of School Safety Directors Founding Leadership Board 💯 Security Consultant ☑️ Speaker ➡️ Problem Solver 🎯Safety & Security Specialist
What does the term "school safety expert" actually mean? In 2024, the title is thrown around loosely, often landing on those who lack real-world experience in schools. Many self-proclaimed experts have never set foot inside a school, undermining the credibility of genuine safety professionals. Being a former police officer, security officer, or product seller doesn't automatically translate to expertise in school safety. Newsflash - You don't know what you don't know! It's time to distinguish between those who talk the talk and those who walk the walk. School districts must prioritize hiring dedicated and qualified school safety directors who understand what it means to create a culture of safety. #SchoolSecurity #SchoolSafety #Education #Leadership #YouAreNotAnExpert

Get the training wheels off! One of the most terrifying moments as a parent is sitting in the car with your child when they are a newly crowned driver. And the same can be said as a sales leader watching your team go live with sales meetings. Training and learning are important, but the truth is that actually getting behind the wheel for real is always the best way to gain sales learning hours. You have to make real mistakes for it to mean something, to be able to correct yourself and get advice from your peers and leaders. So, safe driving to my daughter (I’ll try not to feign pushing the brakes when in the passenger seat), and good luck to new sales pros or those sales pros changing into new roles in a new sector. Plus, pro tip: it’s OK to share with your prospect that you are new in the role, you are on a journey, and you are excited to take them with you. Often, they might go easier on you and trust the process.

On this date 12yrs ago was my first day of work in Hillsboro, Oregon after college. I remember it like yesterday - I was so nervous the night before. Over that time, here are a few things I’ve learned: 1.) Relationships matter, a lot. That’s both internal and external - reach out and connect with other like minded people, you never know who you’ll be working with or for down the road. 2.) Be a life long learner. I feel like I learn something new everyday - either about safety, health, environmental, or leadership. Never stop learning. 3.) Consistency makes you stand out. Ideas are easy. Execution is hard. Consistency is harder. 4.) Being able to control your emotions, especially when things don’t go right - is a strength. 5.) People will always remember how you made them feel - Don’t be a Bully. Be Kind. It’s amazing what you can accomplish when you surround yourself with great people, challenge yourself, and take advantage of opportunities. #safety #herestonext12yrs

Cross training employees moves the needle, not just in manufacturing or supply chain but across all the industries. Cross training is really the next level. What happens if you have employee that calls in sick or they can’t make it to work? You have to have someone that steps in to their position ready to perform because operations cannot stop. What worked for me was I identified all the operations within my department, I would also identify all the employees based on their experience and place them next to operations on the board. Color code each employee as GREEN🟩 (experts and trainers), YELLOW🟨 (performed in position, developing), and ORANGE🟧 (never done that position). Make it visible to employees and executives to understand where we are at and where we are going. Cross training is never ending cycle. It is really important to continuously crosstrain employees for better performance and results. 🚀 #employeetraining #crosstraining #recruitingtips #headhunting #manufactoring #recruiting #hrrecruiting #plasticsmanufacturing

Self Defense Quiz I once attended a workshop for self defense instructors and before the session began,the senior black belt leading the session posed a question: “What is the single most important factor that dictates strategy in a fight? “ Despite having 40 instructors in attendance, everyone remained quiet. The correct answer was “terrain”. If you consider all the factors that can effect your abilities to successfully defend yourself, one must consider the layout of the room and the footing available during a fight. Sadly, the self defense industry rarely discusses spacial requirements or footwork needs to accomplish the specific techniques they teach. In reality, every “solution” taught for a given attack must be filtered through very real logistical considerations. An incomplete list to ponder: Is there safe footing for kicks? Is there enough room for a takedown? How crowded are the surroundings? Do I need to worry about a second attacker? Which direction is safety? Am I defending a person who is important to me? Without these specific bits of information, it is impossible to ascertain whether a specific technique is effective. Takedowns may require floor space that a crowded sports bar or subway station might not accommodate. Uneven or slippery terrain might make kicking or bursting footwork untenable. (I was once on an Amtrak train going 100+ mph and realized that the floor was shaking so violently, kicks would be impossible). The location of safe egress might be in front or even behind you; thus affecting which direction you ultimately send your attacker, if you're able to establish any level of control over their body. A major mistake that students make when learning self defense, is assuming the physical location of the attack they must ultimately defend has the same or similar physical layout to the location they learned the technique. Remember, techniques must be adapted to how you move, the size and weaponry of your attacker, the need to protect a VIP and, most importantly, the space and footing you have available. Learn your techniques, practice them enough to understand how to implement them in time of need, but always remember that where you are dictates what opportunities you will ultimately have available to complete the tasks at hand.
