Shattered Lives: Felix Nater discusses Active Shooters

Because workplace violence prevention has been commoditized by sales people selling training videos, computer based training, active shooter training focuses on what to do "if" there's an active shooter instead of focusing on how to manage and prevent the transition from disgruntled employee to active shooter. This transition to homicidal violence is a reaction to a threat that inevitably results in death or injuries, too late. Our active shooter training is on what to do to minimize further risk during the shooting but not tied to prevention.
