Lessons From A Violent Crisis

- Peace in times of Crisis
I did some crisis intervention today with workers at an organization where a fired employee had killed 2 staff members. I have been going over it in my mind, and two lessons remain in my head.
- Remember the best predictor of violence is a past history of violence. We must know a person’s history if we are to evaluate them for violence potential. Today with so much fear about being sued people are often overly cautious about sharing information with others. Remember it is not slander if it is true!
