S.A.F.E. Approach for Workplace for Train the Staff Program
About the Program: The S.A.F.E. Approach for Business is designed specifically for those in the professional, commercial, and service industries where the effective use of verbal and non-verbal communication skills can reduce the risk of negative or violent encounters with customers and the public in general. At the heart of The S.A.F.E. Approach is the concept of recognizing potentially hazardous situations and mitigating their impact all while treating individuals with dignity and respect – a key component. We know that compassion, empathy and a comprehensive understanding of human behavior can resolve or even prevent most conflicts. It’s only on rare occasion that an individual must resort to some form of defensive posture or response, but it’s this key component of our training that separates The S.A.F.E. Approach™ from many others: our simple, effective and easy to remember methods for enhancing personal safety. Why S.A.F.E? Businesses today face an ever increasing responsibility to care for and protect their employees. All employers have a general duty to provide their employees with a workplace free from recognized hazards likely to cause death or serious physical harm. Not only must you concern yourself with quality of service or goods you provide, but you also have a duty to protect these individuals from recognized likely causes of physical harm. Quite frankly, there are a number of considerations you face in bringing a complete workplace violence reduction program to your business. From civil and criminal law to satisfying your customers, each of these requirements has costs associated with them, both in staff training and curriculum expense. As businesses strives to minimize expenses and better manage assets, administrators are looking for programs that are cost-effective and yet provide excellent training and resources to assist in protecting all who enter their facilities. This is why The S.A.F.E. Approach method was developed; to provide corporate owners, administrators, security directors and others peace of mind in knowing that their employees – at all levels – have been trained in effective methods of resolving conflict. As you familiarize yourself with our program, you will see that we have extensive experience in conflict resolution. The word Safe in The S.A.F.E. Approach tends to speak for itself; however, to further define our program, we use the acronym S.A.F.E. as follows: S – Safety The S.A.F.E. Approach™ method has the safety or everyone in mind. Those who participate in our training learn techniques that will keep them safe and others as well. A – Attitude It’s been said that, “We can’t control others actions; we can only control our own!” While this may be true in many encounters, we believe that our own attitude plays an important role in any encounter and has a strong influence on the attitude of others. F – Focus In order to be effective, we must maintain focus on the techniques taught. As we all are aware, habits form when we repeat routines of behavior. Done enough, these habits become subconscious activities. E – Empathy Empathy has been defined as “the capacity to recognize, and to some extent, share feelings that are being experienced by another.” It is an important component of The S.A.F.E. Approach™ method.
3-Day Active Shooter Response for SROs & Small Agencies
Strategos’ active shooter training is designed with the idea that you – the person on the scene when the attack occurs – are the true first-responder. What you do may determine who lives and dies that day. While we’d like to think that people can rise to the occasion, it’s more accurate to state that people rise – or fall – based on the level of their training. Our natural responses to violent intruders are often completely at odds with what we need to do to prevail. Absent training, people have often: Run toward the sound of gunfire to confirm that the threat was real. Engaged in “normalcy bias” – denying that they’re under attack despite overwhelming evidence. Freeze in place instead of taking fundamental actions such as locking a door. We’ve trained more than 275,000 people (and counting). Knowledge is power – power to resist and prevail against a violent intruder. When people are trained, they can respond to a threat with confidence and resolve.
1-hr High-Risk Terminations for HR, Managers & Supervisors, C-Suite
Who Should Attend: Human Resource Directors, Managers/Supervisors, C-Suite Personnel Description Terminations are never easy for either the employee who is being separated or the supervisor/leader who is conducting the termination. Added to existing stressors are the unknowns answers to questions like “How will this termination be received by the employee?” “Will they react with shock or grief?” “Do they have the potential to act out in the form of violence against supervisors and co-workers?” This course will allow the participant to be educated on not only objectively determining if the upcoming termination is “high-risk” but also outline leading practices for assessing, planning and conducting “high-risk terminations”. Topics Covered Objective Behavior Risk Assessments Two Types of High-Risk Terminations Termination Preparation and Planning Maintaining Dignity and Respect During the Termination Meeting Room Selection for Termination Meeting Safety and Security Mitigation Considerations

2-Hr Active Shooter Prevention & Response for Managers & Supervisors
The objectives and topics covered during this training provide workplace leaders, administrators, supervisors, human resource personnel, security and front line personnel with information and strategies on recognizing and responding to the violent intruder. If the event were to occur what would the impact be to our customers, employees and culture? And how does “preparing in advance” assist in either preventing the event or mitigating the impact if it were to occur. The overall goal of this training program is to provide the course participant with guiding principles and strategies to recognize behavioral pre-cursors to threatening and potentially violent incidents and then to respond accordingly. Participants will learn to: Recognize the frequency of incidents of intruder related violence in the workplace Physiological & Psychological “pros vs. cons” of “trained vs. untrained” employees Identify and recognize risk factors that are inherent to the workplace Recognize on-duty law enforcement capabilities/limitations in responding to these types of incidents Understand and accept that the violent intruder event will most likely be over PRIOR to law enforcement arrival or as the intruder becomes aware of law enforcement presence Understanding the importance of awareness, education and training for front line personnel Attacker/Intruder psychological worldview, goals and motivations Understand and implement principles of LOCKDOWN – “preventing access” vs. “delayed egress” in the workplace Understand and implement principles of LOCKDOWN FAILURE “preventing access failure” via the “3 OUT RESPONSE MODEL” Behavior & Body Language Indicators/Pre-cursors that could escalate to violence Introduction to Behavior Risk Assessments High Risk Termination Criteria & Best Practices Recognize and understand phenomenon of “Normalcy Bias” and training relative to overcoming this phenomenon Understand sensory based decision making and how it affects proper and improper response to the crisis Training includes classroom lecture, instructor walkthrough, demonstration and Q&A’s as well as realistic scenario based training that activates the “sympathetic nervous system”. Activating the SNS in training has proven most effective in preparing staff and personnel for response beyond the level of “lockdown” only and truly gives them the capacity to mitigate and prevail in this “worse case scenario.” Curriculum includes not only lockdown training but also “lockdown failure” response principles.
1-hr Behavior Risk Assessments
Who Should Attend – Human Resource Directors, Managers/Supervisors, C-Suite Personnel Description Have you had an employee that co-workers or supervisors were concerned about their behavior related to potential violence or self-harm? Has progressive discipline related to decreased performance now reached the point of a separation or termination of an employee? No single behavioral indicator (other than direct threats) is an accurate predictor of the potential for future violence. As bad as missing behavioral risk indicators is unfairly labeling someone a risk when they really are not. This course will allow the participant to transition from a subjective opinion about predictive potential of future violence or self-harm to an objective assessment of a current or former employee. Many times, employees or supervisors will “assess” or voice their concerns based on a statement like “I have a bad feeling about how Jim is going to handle this corrective action or termination.” When asked if they can be more specific, they really cannot provide more objective information that will allow the organization to determine if this will be handled as a “high-risk termination” or not. Topics Covered Victim vs. Victimizer Worldview Aggravating vs. Protective Behavioral Factors Cluster and Singular Risk Factors Risk Assessment Scoring Subjective Opinion vs. Objective Assessments
2 hr. PREVAIL!™ Active Shooter Preparedness for Employees
One of the objections by leadership to training staff and team members is that by doing so might create fear within the organization. What should be understood is that fear already exists on this topic as a result of media broadcasts and social media. Additionally, there is a fundamental misunderstanding of where fear comes from – FEAR comes from having a problem WITHOUT a solution. In other words providing practical and simple education on this problem actually REDUCES FEAR not increases it. PREVAIL! can help your organization comply with OSHA’s General Duty Clause, Section 5(a)(1) – requiring employers to provide their employees with a place of employment that “is free from recognizable hazards that are causing or likely to cause death or serious harm to employees.” PREVAIL! will raise your personal awareness when it comes to potential workplace violence threats and/or an active shooter event. A trained response will save lives…yours and those around you! Here’s a breakdown: PREVAIL! was designed in easy-to-use modules. Organizations using PREVAIL! have several implementation paths – The 3 hr. PREVAIL!™ Active Shooter Preparedness for Employee course: Typically, each training session starts with PREVAIL!™ the Movie. This 13 min. dramatic video sets the stage for the session by engaging participants quickly – emotionally – by watching an active shooter event unfold in their workplace. The purpose of this movie is to engage the viewer to relate to these types of incidents occurring and although they don’t realize it while watching it there are clips from the movie utilized later in the program to illustrate learning points like “normalcy bias”, “3 OUT Response Model”, etc. Next, Preparing to PREVAIL!™ module is an introduction to the the session by discussing key learning points in an active shooter event as well as learning objectives for the program. PREVAIL!: The OUT Actions™ goes into detail about the 3-OUT Intruder Response Approach. The last module of the course then discusses the psychology and motivation of the of attacker in PREVAIL!: Understanding the Adversary™ There is also a manager/supervisor module Leading to PREVAIL!™ available to inform and encourage managers to discuss potential scenarios, table top exercises within their teams for 5-10 min. “chalk talks” – as well as a powerful meeting opener, Prevailing Is…™ to kick off each review session. The participant then has the opportunity to apply what they have learned in several computer based interactive scenarios where their responses are critiqued. The participant then completes the course by completing an assessment to measure their understanding in applying what they have learned and all results are stored and the participant who successfully completes the assessment will then be issued a certificate.

2 ½ Core Value Index (CVI) Foundational E-learning Course
Getting the right people to do the right thing at the right time, in the right way, and for the right reason. We will tell you what it takes decades to learn about a person, in 7-9 minutes, measuring the part of them that doesn’t change and can’t be faked This 2 ½ hr. E-learning foundational course on the “Core Value Index” model will provide the foundation for the following: Understand how fellow team members are hardwired provide better understanding on how to communicate with them Provide alignment with how a person is hardwired to the position that you are asking that team member fo fulfill De-personalize potential conflict areas between team members based on their understanding how each person is hardwired Using the most reliable psychometrics assessments available, we exist to help you: Find what’s hidden – in people where untapped potential can be unleashed Free what’s stuck – in situations where limiting factors can be removed Fix what’s broken – in crisis where unspeakable damage can be prevented We’ve all seen them: personality tests designed to make us more self-aware: “You are an E, S, T, J” or a “lion vs otter” and a “Wing 3w2”- descriptions that end up in a drawer. Then there’s the alluring social media surveys that tell us what Disney character we resemble or whether we would be chosen for Gryffindor or Slytherin: tools that trick us into giving away details about ourselves to those who want to market to us online. While there is nothing wrong with gauging our personalities, they change. Depending on our station in life, what mood we are in, what we ate for breakfast, and whether we are at odds with someone relationally, our results can differ drastically from week to week. At Hardwired Coaching, we are interested in measuring what no one else is measuring: that part of you that doesn’t change and can’t be faked. We are after your hardwiring. We believe that everyone on earth was put here with a unique capacity to make a positive difference in the world, for the good of others. We also believe that capacity is largely untapped, least understood, poorly stewarded, and in many cases, severely warped. In a world flooded with labor-intensive and unreliable assessment tools, which change 20-40% within weeks, and with 76% of individuals in the workforce admitting they are unfulfilled in their present role, we believe it’s time to bring the latest advancements in psychometric analysis to the tactical world, the boardroom, the sports arena, the counseling desk, your local church, or even into your home. We will help you measure what no one else is measuring, so you can do what you were made to do. Let’s face it, you are taking a risk on anyone you entrust with responsibility. Most of the time, we are guessing at who they are and what they bring based on the persona they project and the testimony of a few of their best friends, but likability and personality can only get someone so far. It’s not until they roll up their sleeves and get to work that you find out whether you were right or wrong, a potentially costly mistake. At Hardwired Coaching, we can tell what capacity someone has, how much, and to what degree… in seven minutes. Looking to put the right people in the right spot? We can help you identify, align, and focus training on the people that give you the greatest advantage of success, in the following areas:
