Education and training are essential elements in all jobs - doubly so for the protective security industry and those involved in more martial sectors. Owning the basic skillsets of the job is something practitioners must relentlessly pursue in an effort to prevent the unforeseen from rearing its head.
Miyamoto Musashi said, "A thousand days of training to develop, ten thousand days of training to polish. You must examine all this well." Raptor Protection's Chris Butler has dedicated a significant portion of his career to the examination of training with a passion for ensuring people learn and not just repeat the principles and pass the test.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedFrom Private Detective to Protective Intelligence Technologist Tom (TK) Kopecky has used an expeditionary mindset to help direct and focus the work. From a stint working for the state of Illinois to crafting the protective intelligence strategies for high net-worth individuals, he has managed his career with one eye on the operational activities and another on refinement, seemingly weaponizing lessons learned to direct future work, understand margins and ensure the best outcomes for both principal and practitioners alike. It's a master class in what it takes to manage a career and become an entrepreneur. Have your pencils ready for this one!

1 Scientia: Maximizing Training Through a Science-Based Philosophy 2:00:01

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedEducation and training are essential elements in all jobs - doubly so for the protective security industry and those involved in more martial sectors. Owning the basic skillsets of the job is something practitioners must relentlessly pursue in an effort to prevent the unforeseen from rearing its head. Miyamoto Musashi said, " A thousand days of training to develop, ten thousand days of training to polish. You must examine all this well. " Raptor Protection's Chris Butler has dedicated a significant portion of his career to the examination of training with a passion for ensuring people learn and not just repeat the principles and pass the test. As we round out 2022, grab a pencil and a cup of your favorite beverage and listen in as we discuss a myriad of topics, from what Chris describes as the 'illusion of learning" to how we can holistically approach training for the job. Chris' philosophy on training is something that every practitioner, master trainer, and risk manager should consider as part of their own.
