Risk Assessments
How likely is an individual to be struck by lightning? It depends on his or her level of awareness, planning, preparation and common sense. Those with a fatalism mentality are likely to be the victim of lightning not by fate, but rather, imprudence.
How does the lightning analogy apply to the public figure's level of risk? The ground where the public figure stands is not on a level with most. The public figure's celebrity status places them on higher ground, sometimes a pedestal, and at other times holding a lightning rod thus increasing their risk.
A Risk Assessment in simple terms is the sum of the parts. A weather expert assess the sum of the parts to predict the general condition of the atmosphere for a given time and place. The weather expert conducts an assessment of several phenomena to determine unpleasant, adverse or destructive atmospheric conditions, while the security professional, much like the weather expert conducts a Risk Assessment to determine unpleasant, adverse or destructive conditions affecting the security and safety of the public figure. Risk is determined by a multitude of factors playing out in a sequence of random variables.
"The real democratic American idea is, not that every man shall be on a level with every other man, but that every man shall have liberty to be what God made him, without hindrance." Henry Ward Beecher
