In
the aftermath of 9-11, awareness of the risks of terrorism against
corporate and public targets in North America has grown exponentially.
Furthermore, the incidents of workplace violence and occupational
homicide are on the rise even without deliberate “terrorist
attacks.” This course is designed for managers, employees,
and executives of all levels who are interested in preparing for
these threats. This course was not designed for seasoned security
professions, but rather it is a generous introduction to the issues,
decisions, processes, structures, and topics that are involved
with this type of disaster planning. The main goal of the class
is to assist your company in moving toward the reasonable precautions
necessitated by the current threats of terrorism and violent acts.
The “reasonable precautions” class seeks to offer
a summary of approaches and representative models of contemporary
best practices to vividly illustrate and document the lessons
learned in previous criminal and terrorist attacks. This interactive
participative workshop is designed to provide cutting edge information,
numerous practical examples, engaging sessions to stimulate creative
thinking, focus on applications to the unique environment of your
own company, and allow time to develop and critique individualized
action plans.

Chandler, Ph.D, is a professor of communication at Pepperdine
