Milwaukie Police Chief Bob Jordan, a 27-plus-year veteran of the FBI, will be the featured speaker at our chapter’s last breakfast presentation for the 2010-2011 year, to be held June 9.

In this presentation, we will review some of the more disastrous actions that have occurred in the workplace, with a view towards “lessons learned”.  There are high frequency events that our most thoughtful managers have awareness of and know how to address with the help of HR.  Some recurring workplace issues such as allegations of age or gender discrimination, sexual harassment and a hostile work environment are troubling, but we have learned how to address them.  Even the most attentive manager can fail to plan for the less recurrent, but catastrophic events that, in fact do, occur.   This session will focus on the low frequency, high risk events and what HR and managers need to know to be prepared for these.  Chief Jordan will  cover lessons learned from workplace shootings and other tragic events.  From such events there are some basic preventive and mitigating steps that can be taken to minimize the impact to co-workers and to your organization.
