TRAINING
IS VERY IMPORTANT!
The mind-set you utilize to protect is vital to
the safety of your client. This is so important the we want to stress an
elemental thing: the bodyguard’s primary
responsibility is keeping his client from harms way. Understand:
if the client ever sees a confrontation the bodyguard has failed in his
first responsibility. Very few individuals truly know what this means, and
think of the profession as one of physical skills: martial arts, weapons
expertise, survival driving, etc.
Like many, you may have police or military training in
various action techniques; you may have already
worked as a bodyguard without being aware of the principals of protection;
this can be dangerous for your client and yourself. To protect you must
utilize the most important skill: Non-Confrontation.
You may be an expert with weapons, a superb martial
artist, and a skilled tactical driver; but these talents alone will not
make you a professional bodyguard. You must add the most important element
of all to your skills.
OMNI Institute’s Study Program stresses the
theory of
Non-Confrontational Protection. This is important in two ways: 1) the
safety of the client and the bodyguard, and 2) confrontations become
targets for the press, and most influential individuals do not want any
adverse publicity for themselves or their company.
