He engaged in, organized, and supervised operations around the globe, working in Asia, the Middle East, Latin America, Africa, Europe, the former Soviet Union, and elsewhere. He was recognized professionally for outstanding performance and for operational achievements in hostile environments. After leaving government service, Baker cofounded Diligence LLC, a global intelligence, investigations, risk management, and security firm that grew during the following decade and a half into one of the acknowledged industry leaders. As a principal partner, he led the company as it expanded around the world, opening offices in London, New York, Washington, DC, Moscow, São Paulo, Brussels, and Geneva. Along with other senior partners, Baker established the company’s security operations in Iraq, building a team of over 300 expat and local personnel involved in security and information collection. Following a successful management buyout in late 2020 of the Diligence USA LLC business, Baker merged the company’s operations into the crisis communications and policy firm Portman Square Group (PSG.) While the name has changed, the company boasts the same outstanding staff and commitment to providing the best in investigative support, due diligence, strategic intelligence collection, and risk mitigation services. PSG maintains offices in New York City, Washington, DC, Chicago, Boise, Phoenix, Monterrey, Mexico, and London. PSG provides support to a wide range of Fortune 50 companies, financial institutions, leading law firms, and high-net-wealth individuals around the globe. Baker’s investors and advisers over the years have included William H. Webster, the former director of both the CIA and the FBI; Haley Barbour, the former governor of Mississippi and former head of the Republican National Committee; and Edward Mathias, senior adviser to the Carlyle Group. Baker is a regular contributor to the national and international media on intelligence, security, counterterrorist issues, geopolitical affairs, and cybersecurity, appearing regularly on networks including CNN, Fox News, Sky, and the BBC, as well as appearing frequently on Joe Rogan’s podcast. In addition, Baker is the host of the Discovery’s popular television series Black Files Declassified, now entering its third season.vizualizați mai puține
