Why Should you Attend

We have seen a dramatic shift away from managing workplace violence and hostility to worrying about terrorism and active shooters. Workplace homicide has dropped about 50% since the 1990s and we know that schools and workplaces are the safest places. However, workplace hostility has increased off late. As the workplace becomes increasingly diverse, discrimination, bullying, sexual harassment and xenophobia, has increased. As such, it should be considered a priority in any organization.
