00:00.540 --> 00:02.596
if I'm having a bad day and somebody

00:02.596 --> 00:05.280
checks in on me , that's a proactive ,

00:05.290 --> 00:07.346
you can see it in the workplace when

00:07.346 --> 00:09.234
someone's not having a good day ,

00:09.234 --> 00:11.234
especially where I work . I see the

00:11.234 --> 00:13.457
same people every day . I know who they

00:13.457 --> 00:15.401
are . I know everything about them

00:15.401 --> 00:18.370
sometimes too much about them , but I

00:18.370 --> 00:20.592
know when they're not having a good day

00:20.592 --> 00:22.592
and they know what I'm not having a

00:22.592 --> 00:24.648
good day is doing something before a

00:24.648 --> 00:26.814
red dot behavior even occurs . Because

00:26.814 --> 00:28.926
the truth is , we're not always going

00:28.926 --> 00:31.148
to be in situations where we see active

00:31.148 --> 00:30.700
interpersonal violence taking place

00:30.710 --> 00:32.932
these proactive green dots and starting

00:32.932 --> 00:35.154
to change our culture and putting those

00:35.154 --> 00:37.266
up on the map are designed to educate

00:37.266 --> 00:39.377
us on the acts that we can take every

00:39.377 --> 00:41.599
single day . Maybe you just ask someone

00:41.599 --> 00:41.590
how their weekend was or ask them about

00:41.590 --> 00:43.701
upcoming plans to make sure that they

00:43.701 --> 00:45.812
have a plan for getting in and out of

00:45.812 --> 00:47.757
the city and making sure they have

00:47.757 --> 00:49.812
someone watching over them . What we

00:49.812 --> 00:49.550
can do , what we can put in our office ,

00:49.550 --> 00:51.772
what we can say in conversations , what

00:51.772 --> 00:53.883
we can put on our social media to let

00:53.883 --> 00:55.828
people know where we stand on this

00:55.828 --> 00:57.939
issue and let us know that we want to

00:57.939 --> 00:57.720
be part of the solution rather than the

00:57.720 --> 00:59.887
problem . You always want to promote a

00:59.887 --> 01:01.887
welcoming environment , always just

01:01.887 --> 01:03.998
letting people know that you're there

01:03.998 --> 01:05.942
for him being genuine when we have

01:05.942 --> 01:08.109
discussions with people , whether it's

01:08.109 --> 01:07.500
joking or whether it's serious or

01:07.500 --> 01:09.556
whether they truly want my opinion .

01:09.556 --> 01:11.833
Whatever it is , you come to my office ,

01:11.833 --> 01:12.260
let's talk .
