About the instructor
Gordon Graham is a 33 year veteran of California Law Enforcement. During his tenure as a law enforcement professional, he was awarded his Teaching Credential from California State University, Long Beach. He was later graduated from University of Southern California with a Master's Degree in Safety and Systems Management. Subsequent to this he graduated from Western State University with a Juris Doctorate. His education as a Risk Manager and experience as a practicing Attorney, coupled with his extensive background in law enforcement, have allowed him to rapidly became recognized as a leading professional speaker in both private and public sector organizations with multiple areas of expertise.
Mr. Graham has centered his efforts in providing knowledge to both public and private sector organizations in the area of Organizational and Operational Risk Management, Civil Liability, Professionalism, Ethical Decision Making and related topics. Instead of focusing solely in after incident damage control, he focuses his efforts in the prevention of mistakes through his risk management based training program SROVT (Solid Realistic Ongoing Verifiable Training). He teaches employees, supervisors, and managers why things generally go wrong, and how to prevent these unfortunate situations from happening. He follows up his prevention efforts with a dynamic presentation on how to recognize the incidents that have a likelihood of ending up in litigation. He concludes his program with a detailed examination on how to prove proper conduct. Additionally, Mr. Graham has developed the CATSINRO approach to the elimination of Harassment in the workplace. This is the only program that combines legal aspects of this topic with a risk management approach to elimination of such incidents prior to occurrence. Each of his presentations includes the appropriate written "rules" for the topic covered. These risk management rules allow the informed listener to make immediate, progressive changes in operations to better protect themselves and their organization.
TOPICS TO BE COVERED AT THIS SEMINAR Why Things Go Right - Why Things Go Wrong This is an operational risk management look at tasks, incidents and events that your personnel are expected to be able to handle in their specific job description. This block focuses on how to Recognize, Prioritize and Mobilize - so that each employee is aware of the tasks they will encounter that has the highest probability of ending up going wrong - and more importantly what can be done today to prevent this from happening. Civil Liability in Public Safety Operations This is a legal/risk management approach to the elimination of civil liability through pre incident planning and post incident documentation. It also contains a section on recognizing incidents that regularly end up in litigation, and what management and supervision needs to do before our lawyers get the case. The attendee will receive a copy of GRECL, Graham's Rules for Elimination of Civil Liability. This block is an in depth look at how plaintiff lawyers use the gap between the date of an incident and the service of a lawsuit to hurt us in court. There are a number of specific "dates" post "threshold incident" that need to be recognized and taken seriously. This program will point our what the "plaintiff" lawyer is doing to help "win" their case and the risks associated with their activities. It also shows the role of management, supervision and line personnel in preventing this harm. Who should attend? This seminar is recommended for department heads, city managers, supervisors and attorneys representing public safety agencies.
