K Calder & Associates

K Calder & Associates is a fully licensed and insured security and threat management consulting practice. We provide practical threat management solutions and services to private and public sector organizations and individuals.

Faced with a threat, two common reactions emerge:

• Under-react: "Bob's just like that. Calm down. Ignore him. Once he gets fired, the problem will be solved."
• Over-react or mis-react: "There's an armed guard by the front door and new lexan windows, just in case Bob comes by again."

Both reactions can be dangerous. How do you know if a person is a "howler" (makes noise but is not dangerous) or a "hunter" (requiring an immediate and specific response)?  A trained threat assessment professional will help you:

• Manage risk and practice due diligence
• Focus resources exactly where they are needed

We do:

• Customized consulting
• Threat assessment training programs
• Threat/risk assessments
• Security planning for organizations (private and public)

Empty threats... or early warning?

An act of significant workplace violence is rarely a spontaneous incident. Often there are identifiable behaviours of concern, or indicators, which show that a person is moving toward an act of violence. We can help you evaluate and manage the risk.  Contact us today if you are concerned.
