How can workplaces better identify and prevent acts of violence before they happen?
In this episode of Fed Time Stories, hosts John Gill and Dave Brant sit down with Matt Doherty, managing director of Workforce Risk Management at Sikich and former Special Agent in Charge of the U.S. Secret Service National Threat Assessment Center. Matt played a key role in shaping modern threat assessment strategies, moving beyond outdated profiling methods to focus on behavioral indicators that can prevent violence before it happens.
He shares how his team pioneered investigative techniques that have since become essential in workplace violence prevention, and why organizations still struggle to implement effective policies today. From high-stakes cases to lessons learned inside the Secret Service, Matt reveals what businesses, law enforcement, and everyday citizens need to know to stay ahead of emerging threats.
Tune in to hear why warning signs are often missed, how early reporting can save lives, and how law enforcement’s approach to threat mitigation is evolving.
