In a world of uncertainty and increasing danger, how can we protect ourselves? Early recognition and avoidance of threats can be the deciding factor in whether you become a victim or not.

This session will open your eyes to critical environmental and behavioral clues that warn of danger. We will discuss cases and recent events to extract pre-incident indicators and analyze the best responses.

Whether it be angry customers, disgruntled coworkers, domestic violence issues that spill over into the workplace, or an individual stressed out and fed up who chooses your office and your employees to terrorize, we must be equipped to handle whatever walks through our doors. This session will also provide crucial skills to identifying threats and avoiding unsafe situations.

Being aware of your surroundings and learning to recognize and heed nuances of danger could save your life. In this session, we will learn where our greatest threats come from, how to reduce risk, and skills for dealing with danger.

Why do we often get “a bad feeling” about a person or situation? Participants will have a clear understanding of existing violence problems, ways to recognize warning signs, and prevention policies and methods. Anyone can benefit from this information, and most will find the material covered to be useful in their personal life as well.
