Message from the President and CEO : Center for Security and Emergency Managment

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) March 2, 2010 -- As President and Chief Executive Officer, I often make the case that Center for Security and Emergency Management (C4SEM) is a unique resource in the field of security and emergency management training and consulting organizations. I can make this claim for three reasons.

First, C4SEM is built upon an academic model through which we provide both objective research and client-centered training and consulting services. Our mission and vision shape our core research, training and consulting services, ensuring that those services are insightful and academically and technically rigorous. And, our consulting practice keeps our research program rooted in the real world – the world that our clients are facing today.

Second, all of the work that we do – be it our training, consulting, our research or our mission projects – is informed by our systems perspective. That perspective begins by recognizing that there is no single solution. Security and emergency management depend on a complex fabric of national and international security policies and politics that are constantly interacting, evolving and ultimately shaping our strategies. As researchers, we are trained to see and understand the larger environment in which problems arise and for which sustainable solutions can be crafted.

Finally, the diversity of perspective and background found in our team is matched only by the diversity of clients whom we serve and challenges that we address across the continuum of security and emergency management programs. We have many voices within our organization but only one purpose: to deliver comprehensive, systematic solutions that improve safety and security.
