Summary: A must have book for anyone in business!
Comment: Dr. McClure has written a brief, yet profoundly practical and helpful, book that covers violence prevention through intervention in a way that supervisors, managers, and others can use immediately. I have attended Dr. McClure's Risky Business seminar and can say that this book is a seminar in itself. It is readable and chock-full of practical examples and illustrations. She blends her knowledge of management and human behavior to provide those who work in the real world with information they can use. Several features are unique to Dr. McClure's approach. I particularly appreciate her information on how organizations can help to create a culture that does not unwittingly encourage violence. Her eight high-risk behaviors will help managers and others in early identification, and will give them guidance in addressing those exhibiting risky behaviors thereby countering our tendency to want to deny, ignore, rationalize, or avoid. Also, she advocates a team approach, which she details nicely. The information in this book has become the centerpiece of several organizations' workplace violence initiatives and management training programs that I am aware of, including my own. Combined with her video presentation, it will go a long way towards making your place of employment safer. I'm looking forward to what will be coming next from Dr. McClure!

Summary: It is singularly the most powerful book on violence at work!
Comment: In my work I have read about and worked on several projects dealing with the topic of Workplace Violence. This book by Lynne McClure is clearly the best book available on the topic. Lynne is both insightful and available, she offers strong content on the organizational side of the workplace violence issue as well as the employee side of the issue - it is simply the most balanced look at the escalating issue of workplace violence available in the market today. I feel that the book provided a strong benefit to my work and outlook on the topic and the video based on the book (available through Excellence in Training Corporation), served as an equally strong tool for setting workplace violence policy issues within my organization. This is a "must buy" for anyone responsible for monitoring or setting policy on the liability limitation issues surrounding workplace violence.
