G. MICHAEL VERDEN Email & Phone Number

G. MICHAEL VERDEN is a Founder and CEO at The Lake Forest Group based in Lake Forest, Illinois, United States, North America. Are you doing all you can to ensure safety, security and compliance for your organization? Today more than ever, you need to protect your assets from intentional or accidental harm. Assets like people—the top leaders and employees who power your organization—and brand—your reputation, products, services, properties, and legacy. If you are responsible for programs that focus on risk management, corporate security, workplace violence, executive protection, emergency preparedness, campus security, human resources, security awareness training including active shooter, and medical marijuana security, we can partner together to ensure your program is at a best practice based level—saving your company time, money, and resources. As a former police officer, retired U.S. Secret Service agent, Director of Security for the NBA, senior executive for Hillard Heintze, and current owner of the security consultancy firm The Lake Forest Group, I know the most effective, efficient, and unobtrusive means to protect people, property, and processes. My methodology is built on the policies and strategies I learned while protecting the President, White House, and Heads of State. I tailor these measures based on the needs, culture and environment of my clients, such as corporate facilities, collegiate campuses, and commercial properties. I also teach these disciplines as a lead training instructor for the National Center for Spectator Sports Safety and Security. By understanding your goals and objectives, we will leverage our subject matter expertise, project management experience, and knowledge of emerging risk to benchmark your programs, policies, and procedures against industry best practices. Your first step in ensuring the safety, security and compliance of your organization is to contact me for a FREE consultation at 312.515.8747 or gmv@lakeforestgroup.com. I look forward to working with you to create and maintain a lasting partnership as your trusted advisor.
