Nielsen’s Global Security team is dedicated to protecting our people, technology, intellectual property and reputation for integrity. Julia Wilson, Director, Global Responsibility & Sustainability, Nielsen, recently sat down with Bob Messemer, Chief Security Officer, Nielsen, to discuss how the Security team plays an important role for Nielsen across a broad spectrum of environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues.
Bob explained that talent development has been valuable in both strengthening the Security team itself and expanding its influence across the company. For example, he stressed the even balance in gender diversity across the team of security leaders around the globe. Research has found that diverse teams drive above average results.
"鲍勃说："我们还倾向于输出人才，利用创新与其他团队开展独特的合作，比如开展交叉渗透项目，让其他团队的人加入我们，同时让我们的人加入他们的团队。"从这个项目中走出来的人，比如财务领导者，成为了更好的财务领导者，对欺诈风险和我们调查的其他问题更加敏锐"。
跨团队共享安全调查的结果能让其他团队也更有效地开展工作。安全团队定期与公司审计人员（CAS）以及董事会审计委员会分享这些调查的结果和经验教训。为了降低潜在风险，尼尔森所有团队之间的这种合作至关重要。
"鲍勃说："让我们的广大股东了解我们也是这样做的，这一点非常重要。"例如，我们希望投资者相信，尼尔森有适当的控制措施和适当的方法来应对不可预见的挑战。在这方面，我认为安全团队在提供保证方面发挥着非常重要的作用。"
