Post links to the 3 resources and CRITICALLY review each to assess the value of the information provided in terms of assisting the Security Administrator in performing his/her job. Don’t just summarize the resource, but discuss the pros and cons of the value of the resource to furthering your knowledge of security in this sector.

For this assignment, do NOT use ASIS, Google, and/or Wikipedia as research sources or subjects.

QUESTION 2

Consider the following scenario: You are a security first line security supervisor in charge of a small college campus proprietary guard force. In your most recent performance evaluation, your supervisor, the Assistant Security Director for Patrol indicated that vehicle burglaries have been rising all year in the campus parking garages. It was also noted that several of your subordinate guards have been observed congregating in the cafeteria. As a result, your performance rating in the area of SUPERVISION indicates a “Needs Improvement.” You feel this is unfair since you have been operating with less than a full complement of guards due to generally low pay and high turnover.

Respond to the following issues:

What strategies might you suggest to your supervisor in an effort to improve YOUR performance as a Supervisor?
What organizational factors do you think might be affecting your unit’s productivity? How would you go about changing your subordinates’ behavior?
