Lions are fighters..... The lion hunt for his food – food is not a given as with the other animals in nature. The masses such as the Impala have more than enough to graze – grass. Lions have to go and find food, they have to observe, they have to be patient, the have to take calculated risks, they have to track and follow – all of these actions before they can attack and then put a fight up. In the private security industry you have to fight for survival – fight for a contract, fight to retain a contract, be patient, fight for an increase and sometimes security officers also have to fight – for a better dispensation, recognition, fight to achieve operational success.

Many times we fight for and achieve success, we are happy and wait for the right opportunity for another success later – then, in that period of waiting for another opportunity we become complacent and inconsistency creeps is – that complacency (sic) that the industry is renowned for. It is that period where the users of security and the security leaders get frustrated – that period where leadership pulls it through for the industry and also for the security officers. This will unfold in Lions Leading Lions.

Creating Winning Tactics for Leaders. We have too many strategists, too many want to be strategists and too few tacticians in business in SA. We too often want to talk Strategy and actually forget what should happen on the tactical level – there where the “takkie” meet the tar or the safety boot hit the ground.

Leaders in business, not only the security business, needs more practical guidance on how to create and lead great teams – not the strategies but the tactics to out manoeuvre the opposition, to win the hearts of their staff and to ultimately succeed in that developmental obligation that leaders have.

I wrote this book as a practical guide to help security leaders navigate their way through the sometimes complex world of winning the heart and minds of those that they serve: their teams.
