SIA Names Lynn de Séve as 2021 George R. Lippert Memorial Award Winner
The Security Industry Association (SIA) has named Lynn de Séve — founder and president of GSA Schedules Inc. — as the 2021 recipient of the George R. Lippert Memorial Award, an honor presented annually to a distinguished individual for long-term, selfless service to the security industry and to SIA. de Séve will receive the award on Wednesday, Nov. 17, during the 2021 SIA Honors cocktail reception.
“It is such an honor to be selected as the recipient of the George R Lippert Memorial Award,” de Séve said. “I was frankly speechless when I received the news, as I had no idea I had been nominated. To be considered and then to be among the group of prior awardees is quite humbling. I wish to thank the Security Industry Association for always being supportive of this ‘woman in security.’ Joining SIA has directly contributed to the success of my company, has been a great benefit to my clients, and has been one of my most important resources in my career. The advocacy for our industry in government affairs, standards, education, inclusiveness, and so much more based on the efforts of the membership and SIA staff is something for which I am very proud. Thank you, SIA, for your contributions and for this amazing award.”
