Security and Emergency Preparedness Policy Briefing

Friday, July 31, 2026 (12:00 PM - 1:00 PM) (PDT)

Description


Is Your Building's Security Culture Ready for Today's Challenges?

Our Security & Emergency Preparedness Committee Chairs will lead a discussion on how to build a strong security culture grounded in situational awareness, proactive training, and shared responsibility among managers, security teams, tenants, and stakeholders.

Together, they'll explore practical ways to develop effective training programs, encourage security personnel to take ownership of their role, and engage tenants in strengthening building readiness. From fire and life safety drills to recognizing suspicious activity, the discussion will focus on real-world strategies that help make security a daily mindset, not just a response to an incident.

Committee Co-Chairs:

Mario Gaggioli / Chief Operating Officer / Guard-Systems, Inc. 

Ivan Villegas, CPP / Chief Security Officer / UCLA Office of the Vice Chancellor & Chief Financial Officer
