Commercial growth and security aren't opposites. They're the strongest combination of the future.
But what does that mean for your business — for leadership teams and employees alike? What does it take for security to be anchored in every layer of an organisation? How do you grasp what it means when digital and physical threats merge and start shaping everyday life? And when new hybrid threats emerge, who is responsible for turning that into real understanding — and real action?

Susanne & Jesper: Inside the World of Risk and Protection
A rare joint appearance by two of Denmark’s most experienced security voices — a former royal bodyguard and UN security chief, and one of the country’s few female security-industry CEOs — sharing the anecdotes, near-misses and lessons usually reserved for closed briefings.
Why this pairing: together they carry more than 45 years across diplomatic, royal, police, UN and private-sector security — Susanne as CEO of Praesidio Group and author of “Prepare for the Worst”, Jesper as a former royal bodyguard and 16-year UN security chief in Denmark, author of “In the Secret Service of the Majesty”.
Audience
Conferences, company events, executive offsites
Format
1 or 2-hour joint talk
- What decades protecting a head of state, an embassy and 2,000+ UN staff actually teach about risk
- Why most security decisions get made "a war behind" — and how to get ahead of the next one
- Practical, fear-free tools for everyday risk awareness, delivered with rare humour and honesty
Executive Protection in an Unsettled World
Protecting your key people is no longer just a question of bodyguards — it’s both a physical and a digital question, and the two now escalate into each other faster than most leadership teams expect.
Why now: nearly a third of S&P 500 companies now disclose formal executive-protection programmes, and 42% of security chiefs report a significant rise in threats of violence against executives.
Audience
Boards, executive leadership, EAs
Format
45-min talk or working session
- What "executive protection" actually covers today — more than a driver and an earpiece
- How digital exposure often becomes the entry point for physical risk
- A short list of low-cost, high-impact steps within 30 days
Crisis Preparedness: The First 48 Hours
Most organisations discover their crisis plan doesn’t work at the exact moment they need it. This session is about closing that gap before it’s tested for real.
Why now: only 49% of companies have a formal, tested crisis plan, and post-crisis reviews show that most warning signs were visible in hindsight — but missed in the moment.
Audience
Leadership teams, crisis committees
Format
45-min talk or workshop session
- A tabletop scenario built around your organisation's real profile
- What separates plans that hold from those that don't
- A clear checklist for the first 48 hours your team can take away
One team, two arenas
Same team, on the stage and in the field.
The people delivering these sessions are the same practitioners who run Praesidio’s protection, event-security and crisis work — not a separate speaker bureau. What you hear in the room is what we actually do for our clients, which is why the points still hold once the talk is over.
- What decades protecting a head of state, an embassy and 2,000+ UN staff actually teach about risk
- Sessions are tailored together with you in advance, so examples match your industry and audience.
- A talk can be the start of a deeper relationship — many clients move from a talk to a tailored workshop or ongoing advisory work.
