From there Janina built up her experience and skill set within a number of different environments, travelling the globe (literally!) and working with a variety of people from Royals to Google Execs. Janina is passionate about her role, passionate about the industry and passionate about helping new entrants into private security and the CP world. She talks openly and honestly about some of the barriers she has come up against and more importantly opens up the discussion on what we can all individually start doing to strengthen teams and create more balanced, happier and effectively more productive workplaces rather than merely coexisting. Thank you so much Janina for taking the time to speak with us &#8211; we know you are an extremely busy lady!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=OHE69o-Hhsg&amp;t=412s\">Watch video<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Interview with Janina Lincke: from Scientist to Close Protection Officer In their series \u00a0#talkaboutitTuesdays,&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":51,"featured_media":9560,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[54,12009,49],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9559","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-profiles","category-quick-click-security","category-security-careers"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.0 (Yoast SEO v25.2) -
