Safety isn’t a slowdown — it’s a performance strategy.
In this episode of Frontline Fridays, host Ron Thurston sits down with Dean Correia, Founder of Correia Security Resources, to talk about what it really takes to run safer stores without slowing teams down.
With over 30 years of experience leading security and operations for brands like Walmart, Starbucks, and Gap, Dean shares why “the safest place to work is the best place to work.” He and Ron unpack how safety drives engagement, reduces shrink, and builds trust from the sales floor up — and why leaders should treat safety as a culture, not a checklist.
They also explore the rise of retail crime, how to make incident reporting simple, and the one daily habit that helps every team feel safer and perform stronger.
How to Run Safer Stores Without Slowing Teams Down — Season 2, Episode 4 is available now.
