How Can I Help? De-escalation in the Workplace

Tuesday, November 15, 2022 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

To foster connections, please register for the section serving your region or library type if possible. However, you may sign up for any available section that fits your schedule.

Section served in this workshop:
Urban and Southern California Library Cooperative and Serra

See all sections here.

As observations of escalated behaviors have increased, library staff need fresh tools for realistic expectations, healthy boundaries, and authentic connection. In this highly interactive workshop, we look at the crucial role of purpose, keys to prevent power struggles, and what to do when you need to exit an interaction.  This workshop focuses on escalation prevention, and mental health for library staff and patrons.  This workshop does not address conflict that includes physical violence, but rather the cumulative weight of increased patron anger, outbursts, and anxiety.
