A Word from our Sponsor
Brinks Ireland explain their decision to sponsor the Officer of the Year Award:” "Our People are our greatest asset!" How often have we heard that idiom or read it in corporate literature, or HR textbooks. Unfortunately Joseph Stalin has been credited as the modern day inventor of the phrase which can cast a shadow on any business manager or organisation that lets the phrase pass from their lips.
The ISIA has been recognising security officers for the exceptional services they provide to the customer or the public for over 10 years. We work in a people dominated industry and without our colleagues delivering service on a daily basis we would have no business.
Brink's Ireland is delighted to sponsor this award as we realise that without our people and their commitment to excellence - we are nothing.”
