This week's episode is a unique episode, in that I interviewed two people at the same time...for the first time. And since I will be doing a LIVE web event on 2/19 with these guests, I figured it was a great time to share their episode!
I "met" Terry Owens when he reached out on LinkedIn and invited me to a local ASIS event in Kansas City, which made me want to interview him for the podcast and he agreed, but asked if a buddy, Mike Betten, could join in. I told him I hadn't done a dual interview, but was down to give it a whirl...and I am so glad I did! These two clearly have a special bond and were a blast to chat with.
Both have transitioned into the Corporate Security realm and are active members of the Kansas City ASIS chapter, where Mike assists others with studying for exams.
Mike is retired from the Overland Park, KS Police Department, has been an adjunct professor, and is currently the Director of Security at Stowers Institute for Medical Research.
Terry is retired from the Kansas City Missouri Police Department, has served as Loss Prevention Coordinator, and is currently the Director of Security at Shamrock Trading Corporation.
Both share their transition stories in this episode and about what it means to be apart of ASIS. Make sure to give both of them a follow and reach out to them with any questions you may have about Corporate Security or ASIS.
