Proactive Situational Awareness for Today’s Threat Environment

Most organizations don’t fail to prevent violence because they don’t care.
They fail because they’re forced to make decisions too late, with too little structure, and too much ambiguity.
By the time intent is obvious, options have already collapsed.
The short clip above introduces one of the central problems in violence prevention: organizations often confuse being aware with being ready to act.
Situational awareness alone doesn’t create advantage.
Recognition without a decision framework still leads to hesitation.
And response improvements—no matter how refined—only operate after the moment that mattered most has passed.
In the full briefing, I walk through how violence actually develops over time, why early signals are so often dismissed or misinterpreted, and what organizations must deliberately build if they expect to act before the outcome is locked in.
This isn’t a checklist or a tool demo.
It’s not about prediction or certainty.
It’s about how decisions get made under uncertainty—and why earlier, imperfect decisions are often more defensible than later, clearer ones.
The full presentation covers:
Why violence has become normalized despite better response capabilities
What “left of bang” really means when viewed as a decision and capability problem, not a mindset
Why violent intent is the only constant across preventable attacks
How Baseline + Anomaly → Decision provides a structured way to act earlier
How observable behavior creates shared language and organizational confidence
Why waiting for certainty quietly guarantees delay
Where AI meaningfully helps—and where judgment remains non-negotiable
What it actually takes to build sustainable left-of-bang capability inside an organization
If you’re responsible for people, facilities, or risk—and you’ve ever felt the tension between “we saw something” and “we couldn’t act yet”—this briefing is designed for you.

The shift from information shopping to information hunting is brilliant framing. In my work I've definately noticed how passive scanning misses critical signals until it's too late. The proactive stance you're describing here feels like such a necessary evolution, especially in environments where threat actors keep adapting faster than traditional detection methods.
