When Should Leadership Seek Threat Evaluation?


Organizations often reach out when a situation involving a concerning individual begins creating uncertainty for leadership.

  • An employee begins making concerning statements or threats

  • Fixation on an executive or colleague becomes apparent

  • Escalating workplace conflict raises safety concerns

  • Someone begins displaying disturbing online behavior toward staff or the organization

  • Leadership is unsure whether a situation represents a credible threat or emotional distress

Early evaluation allows leadership to make calm, proportionate decisions before situations escalate.
