There is a difference between having a process which ticks all the boxes for insurance and ensuring your people understand how risks may affect them personally. I can’t imagine any of the Directors or Partners I worked with over the years sitting down and reading a long risk assessment unless that is they were going…
Tony was recently interviewed by the editor of Business Travel iQ Amanda Greenwood about how to engage staff in risk analysis and not just leave risk assessments as a dead file somewhere on a server. Story Telling in risk assessments Full Article Here
That is not of course strictly true, the lawyers may read them after someone makes a claim and your risk, audit or HR dept. may check they exist probably once every year when they do their tick box exercise, they may even check their required headings are there but I bet they do not read…
Recent moped gang robberies have hit the headlines and I have received a number of questions on how they should be defended and what to do. Please see the video clip here for the full information
If you need cash, then the local bank cashpoints are often used. One of the great advantages of cashpoints of course is that you can travel the world cashless these days and just get local currency at any cashpoint. Long gone in the distant past is the idea of traveller’s cheques, in fact when I…
Stairways and Elevators have advantages and disadvantages. Basically, an elevator is a box. In fact, it’s a box with a restricted entrance and exit that will only open under certain circumstances. If you are in the elevator with someone else, you need to realise that any avenue of escape doesn’t exist. So, if you are…
By the way it’s a long one so grab a coffee or read it on the train. Business people are great at identifying, evaluating and managing risk. It’s what they do, often, everyday in throughout their careers. Learning how to avoid bad situations is a skill. One of the senior team at a…
Wellbeing at work - is that just fancy words and the 2024 version of the much-maligned mission statement.In his book The diary of a CEO, Steven Bartlett discusses rewarding staff and incentives and has this to say ;𝐼𝑡 𝑖𝑠 𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑟𝑡𝑙𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑡𝑜 𝑚𝑒, 𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑙𝑙, 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑎𝑛𝑦 𝐶𝐸𝑂 𝑤𝑜𝑢𝑙𝑑 𝑏𝑒𝑙𝑖𝑒𝑣𝑒 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑐𝑢𝑡𝑒 𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑑𝑠, 𝑐𝑙𝑖𝑐ℎ𝑒𝑑 𝑠𝑙𝑜𝑔𝑎𝑛𝑠 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑎𝑠𝑝𝑖𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑎𝑙 𝑣𝑎𝑙𝑢𝑒𝑠 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑦 𝑝𝑢𝑡 𝑖𝑛 𝑒𝑚𝑝𝑙𝑜𝑦𝑒𝑒 ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑑𝑏𝑜𝑜𝑘𝑠 𝑚𝑎𝑡𝑡𝑒𝑟 𝑎𝑡 𝑎𝑙𝑙.I know that many organisations take employee security and safety seriously. However, for some there is still a mismatch between what is in the employee handbook and on the website compared to what the people experience.Wellbeing should not just be sending a few people on a mental health 1st aid course.Some have no training on situational awareness, fraud, and terrorism awareness including radicalisation and the possibility of them or the organisation being targeted. I believe we need to ensure organisations follow the concepts not just a tickbox culture to satisfy their insurance needs.What are your thoughts or experience.#HR #Facilities #safety #selfdefense #security #tonywillis #safety #situationalawareness #training #stalking #counterterrorism #coaching #selfdefenseforwomen #people #workshops #mentalhealth #Wellbeing #learning #staysafe #riskassessment #business #HR #conflictmanagement #people #selfdefence

StalkerThe problem with laws and guidance for what can be very disturbing events like stalking is that those it aims to stop know how to work around the rules.Stalking often comes up when discussing self defence and situational awareness with victims often left feeling unsafe.All too often it seems an assault of some kind needs to occur before they get the protection or at the least interest of their plight they need.#stalking #tonywillis #selfdefense #safety #situationalawareness #security #training
