Jeff McKissack of Defense By Design in Dallas, TX, presented an informative and eye-opening session entitled “Safer Places through Safer People” during Total Solutions Plus, which took place last fall in New Orleans, LA. McKissack, a noted authority in the fields of threat assessment and the prevention of violent crime with over 35 years of experience, speaks at conferences and conventions across the U.S., as well as regularly conducting onsite employee training programs and client value-add events for various companies and corporations. He founded Defense By Design in 2000. McKissack educated the audience about how to protect their business, employees and customers from potentially dangerous workers.

“I have interviewed prisoners and mental patients to learn their tactics,” said McKissack. “There’s no such thing as safe or unsafe places. Criminals know that uneducated people are by far your weakest link and the way to get what they want.”
