  5. This isn’t about risk management, it’s about doing the right thing.

  6. Bystander Effect • A social phenomenon in which individuals are less likely to offer help in an emergency situation when other people are present • How often do we all look around to see how other people are reacting to a situation?

  7. “The times we've seen someone harassed on the street and didn't intervene; when we've driven past a car stranded by the side of the road, assuming another driver would pull over to help; even when we've noticed litter on the sidewalk and left it for someone else to pick up. We witness a problem, consider some kind of positive action, then respond by doing... nothing. Something holds us back. We remain bystanders.” - We Are All Bystanders, Greater Good magazine, retrieved on 7/22/09

  9. The best way of stopping the bystander effect is to be aware of it. But do we all think about this?
