RESENTING A SECURITY plan in
front of a company’s top executives
can be an unsettling experience for
any speaker. These presentations,
however, are vital to chief security officers
(CSOs) who need to understand the business culture and how to position them-
selves within an organization to effectively
present their business case. These goals
were the impetus behind the Wharton/
ASIS International Program for Security
Executives, which saw its first group of 24
security professionals receive certificates
from the Society and the University of
Pennsylvania’s Wharton
School of Business on March
4 at the Steinberg Conference
Center in Philadelphia.
The two-week course is a
mini-MBA program for midand senior-level security executives. It is modeled on an

part of both government and business
strategic thinking.

eight-year-old Wharton program called “Essentials of
Management,” which introduces participants to a business organization from the
enterprise level. The intent of
the Wharton/ASIS course is
to provide security professionals an introduction to the
fundamentals of business so
that they can communicate a
clear business case, exercise
leadership more effectively,
and develop relationships
across organizations. Instructors from Wharton’s MBA

Such preparation was on the minds
of more than 70 attendees of the
ASIS International Crisis Management Council’s annual two-and-ahalf-day workshop titled “Crisis
Management: The Incident Response Plan.” The workshop, held
in Chicago, brought together individuals from a wide variety of
backgrounds and industries to
share ideas and work through a
six-step process for planning for
and managing critical incidents.
During the workshop, participants created, played out, and critiqued an actual crisis management
plan. Council members supplemented these work periods with
presentations on a wide variety of
topics including: gaining the support of upper management, conducting risk assessments, developing plan fundamentals, tactical
response, and conducting exercises.

Next is America the Vulnerable:
How Our Government Is Failing to Protect Us from Terrorism by Stephen
Flynn and published by Harper
Collins. According to Flynn, the
measures in place to protect the
United States’ vital systems are
still woefully inadequate. The author offers a startling portrait of
the shortcomings in the United
States’ current homeland security
plan and paints a frightening picture of the havoc another major
terrorist attack could wreak, including loss of life, economic
chaos, and seismic political consequences. Still worse, he argues,
small improvements have been
oversold as giant steps forward,
lowering the guard of the average
citizen. Flynn carefully outlines a
plan for achieving effective and
manageable vital systems security.
The third new title is Sleuthing

Barry J. Nadell, published by InfoLink. This book is a step-by-step
guide to achieving safe, legally
sound recruiting and hiring practices. It includes a review of applicable federal and state laws and
the types of information that are
available. This comprehensive reference will prove valuable to anyone involved in the hiring process.

IN MEMORIAM
SADLY, ASIS MUST report the death of
Samuel W. Daskam, president of Information Security Associates, Inc., of Stamford, Connecticut. Daskam’s company
was a longtime exhibitor at the ASIS Annual Seminar and Exhibits. Daskam
joined the Society in 1970 and was a
member of the Southern Connecticut
Chapter.
ASIS also regrets to report the death
of Life Member Robert F. Van Arsdall.
He had been a member of the Society
since 1971. Van Arsdall was remembered
fondly by his peers at the February meeting of the Greater Philadelphia Chapter.
Finally, the Society is saddened by the
loss of Life Member Donald G. Payne,
who died in December. He joined ASIS in
1969 and was a member of the Greater
Los Angeles Chapter.

most other ASIS members, rarely

HEN WE SPOKE WITH LINDA F. FLORENCE, CPP,
in mid April, she had just joined Sprint Corporation of Overland Park, Kansas, as its physical
security manager. Florence waxed enthusiastic
about working with fellow ASIS International Board of Directors
Member John C. Cholewa III, CPP, director of physical security
at Sprint. “I have always considered him a mentor. We have never
worked together, but I’ve known him through ASIS for a long
time. He was always the first person who came to mind when I
was in a bind professionally and needed advice. John would always
be the best person to call,” she says.
10
Q: Having mentioned John
Cholewa as one of your mentors—
has the circle turned so that now
you’re a mentor to others?
A: Yes—there’s two particular
people who come to mind—
two instances where I saw in
somebody who didn’t have
any experience in the industry something that could be
beneficial both to it and to
them. One was a woman
who came from the IT side;
I encouraged her to learn the
physical security side and later
she and I literally built a program together. Also, there was
another woman who first
worked for me as an administrative assistant. I gave her an
opportunity to be an investigator
and she embraced it.
The biggest joy that I get out of
being a mentor is when someone
calls who worked for me in the
past and says, “Thanks for what
you did five years ago,” or I get a
Christmas card out of the blue saying, “You have no idea how much
you’ve influenced me.” And it’s not
so much a conscious effort on my
part, more of an ‘I’ve done the
right thing at the right time’ thing

my husband through ASIS. These
security professionals share a lot
of the same values and goals, and
a common culture. You don’t get
that exposure if you stay in your
shell. So, that’s one thing that
ASIS has provided, along with
educational opportunities, certification, and all the other things that
play into personal and professional growth. My personal educational goals have been, in large
part, influenced by my friendships and contacts at ASIS.
for them…And it could have been
that I had to set them straight—that
I had to discipline them in some
way—but it turned out to be the
right thing.
Q: What was the most interesting experience of your security career?
A: The most unique opportunity
I ever had was working at the
1996 Olympics in Atlanta for First
Union to set up a business continuity command post. We planned
for more than a year and threw an
incredible amount of resources at
it. It was fascinating to see how the
Olympic Committee comes into a
city and takes over. Everything
had to be planned—street closures,
badging, medical response, mail
delivery, and airport closures. It’s a
huge coordination effort. And then,
even with the best-laid plans,
we had an incident—the
bombing at AT&T plaza.
worked on was the chapter newsletter, and then I was on the hospitality committee, and it was all
over after that—the next thing you
know I was secretary of the chapter. Then I got involved in the
ASIS Annual Seminar and with
teaching at Northern Virginia
Community College. And then I
got into the regional stuff, and I
was on the Banking and Financial
Services Committee. From there I
went to the Professional Certification Board, and then the ASIS
Board of Directors. Literally, one
thing led to the next.
Q: Has ASIS membership helped your
career?
A: It has certainly given me unique
opportunities. I’ve met people who
I never would have—I even met
Q: What are you proudest of?
A: There’s not one particular thing,
it’s the culmination of the successes
that I’ve had in my education and
professional career. One person
who pushed me to those successes
and whom I need to thank is Tim
Schneider, Ph.D. He’s definitely
been my supporter, both academically and personally. I’ve accomplished more than I ever thought
I would have when I look back
20 years to when I graduated from
college. I’m much further ahead
in my life in general, and I have
accomplished more professionally,
academically, and even in my personal life that I ever thought I
would, and I’ve been able to give
back to my family and friends and
the people who have helped me
along the way. ◆
Q: Why did you become an
ASIS volunteer leader?
A: When I was all of about
20 years old, I went to my
first couple of Washington,
D.C., Chapter meetings. I
saw the energy and the passion that those people had
for the industry. It was
contagious. The first thing I

similar to one conducted recently
for members of the Northern New
Jersey Chapter from which all
participants went on to pass the
exam. The Northern New Jersey
Chapter’s vice chairman and primary instructor for chapter review
courses, Darryl Beard, CPP, PSP,
PCI, spearheaded the initiative,
which became a joint venture between both the Northern New
Jersey Chapter, the Venezuela
Chapter, and ASIS’s Crime and
Loss Prevention Council. The date
has yet to be set for the review,
but the chapters hope to have PSPs
from Central and South America
attend the ASIS 51st Annual Seminar and Exhibits in Orlando this
September.
Gregory Sanders, CPP, a Professional Certification Board member,
stated, “This is a major accomplishment for both chapters and
the Society. It clearly indicates the
importance of board certification
in the international arena and that
members of U.S. Chapters are
willing to share their success with
their international colleagues.”
Venezuela Chapter Chair Valdemar Lopez stated, “We are very
interested in professionalizing our
members through certification.
This and other similar training initiatives are welcome by our mem-

T
he Professional Certified Investigator (PCI) examination
has become computer-based.
All three ASIS sponsored certification exams offered in the United
States and Canada are now “pencil- and paper-free.”
Computer-based testing allows
candidates greater flexibility in
choosing a test date, time, and location. Security professionals who are
pre-approved to take the exam can
schedule through Prometric, the testing subcontractor retained by ASIS.
