Industry Talk: AGNA Awarded $8m for Bahrain and UAE Security Guard Services

     More AGNA news.  I am not the recruiter for this contract(s) and please do not send me a resume in reference to this story.

     I hope AGNA realizes, along with their owners, that we are all watching and we are all demanding excellence out of your management.  Your performance in Afghanistan was dismal and because you did not care about what was going on with that contract, all of us paid a price.  And whomever is the COR on this contract, please do your job and make sure this contract is carried out properly. That means getting out from behind your desk, actually checking on operations, and getting some shared reality about what is happening.  Then you can actually make an assessment as to how things are going.  Most of all, be a man (or woman) and have the courage to do things right when it comes to evaluating the performance of this company.  It’s not hard and all it takes is self-discipline and attention to detail to be effective.

     Or you guys can be ‘marshmallow eaters‘, and take the easy way out on managing these contracts. Thanks to Bill over at Dangerzonejobs for getting this one out there. –Matt

Podcasts: COR Interviews William Beaver of Danger Zone Jobs

Podcasts: COR Interviews William Beaver of DangerZoneJobs.com 

     This show should be required listening for all of those readers out there that are trying to break into overseas contracting.  Bill is an expert in this field, and I highly recommend his Danger Zone Jobs service.  There is a lot of information on that site, and it is one stop shopping for those who want to keep up with the latest news on the industry.  Bill also offers a free PDF on his site, that is a survey of contractors and how they found a job in the contracting field.  It is a wealth of information, and you can find it at www.dangerzonejobs.com . –Matt
