Behavioral Threat Assessments

Identifying and Managing Threats Before Violence Occurs

Most acts of targeted violence are preceded by observable behaviors, communications, or circumstances that indicate an increased risk of concern. Drewry Consulting Group provides behavioral threat assessment services that help organizations evaluate concerning behaviors, assess the potential for violence or harmful actions, and develop effective management strategies that prioritize safety, fairness, and informed decision-making.


Our approach focuses on identifying risk factors, understanding behavior, and implementing practical interventions before situations escalate into serious incidents.

Why Behavioral Threat Assessments Matter

Organizations today face a growing range of behavioral concerns, including threatening communications, harassment, stalking, workplace conflict, fixation, employee misconduct, domestic violence spillover, and other behaviors that can adversely affect safety and operations.

A behavioral threat assessment helps organizations:

  • Evaluate concerning behaviors objectively
  • Distinguish between transient concerns and substantive threats
  • Identify risk factors that may contribute to violence
  • Support early intervention and prevention strategies
  • Improve decision-making during complex situations
  • Reduce organizational liability and uncertainty
  • Strengthen workplace violence prevention programs
  • Protect employees, visitors, students, volunteers, and stakeholders

Rather than relying on assumptions or intuition, behavioral threat assessments provide a structured and evidence-based framework for evaluating risk.

Our Approach

Drewry Consulting Group utilizes established threat assessment principles that focus on behavior, circumstances, motives, stressors, and patterns of escalation rather than stereotypes or profiles.


Case Review and Information Gathering

Our assessment process begins with collecting available information related to the individual, incident, or concern. This may include reports, communications, witness statements, social media content, prior incidents, employment records, and other relevant information.


Behavioral Analysis

Consultants evaluate observed behaviors, warning signs, stressors, grievances, fixation, leakage, concerning communications, and other indicators that may help determine the level of concern.


Threat Determination

The assessment focuses on understanding:

  • Is there evidence of violence-related behavior?
  • Is the concern escalating?
  • Are threats credible or actionable?
  • What stressors or grievances may be present?
  • What protective factors exist?
  • What interventions may reduce risk?

Risk Management Planning

Based on assessment findings, we assist organizations in developing practical management strategies, intervention plans, monitoring protocols, safety measures, and support resources.


Ongoing Consultation

Many situations evolve over time. We provide ongoing consultation to help organizations adjust their response strategies as circumstances change.

Featured Case Study

Workplace Threat Assessment and Intervention


Challenge

An organization became concerned about an employee exhibiting increasingly disruptive behaviors, concerning communications, and escalating conflict with coworkers. Leadership wanted an objective evaluation of the situation to determine whether there was an elevated risk to employee safety and identify appropriate intervention strategies.


Assessment

Drewry Consulting Group conducted a behavioral threat assessment that included:

  • Review of incident documentation
  • Interviews with key personnel
  • Analysis of concerning communications
  • Evaluation of behavioral indicators
  • Assessment of reported stressors and grievances
  • Review of workplace policies and response actions


Findings

The assessment identified multiple behavioral indicators warranting continued concern and management attention. While no immediate act of violence appeared imminent, several risk factors suggested an elevated potential for escalation if left unmanaged.


Outcome

The organization implemented a coordinated risk management strategy that included enhanced monitoring, employee support resources, workplace safety measures, leadership guidance, and clear response protocols. The situation was successfully managed without further escalation, while preserving organizational operations and employee confidence.
