'Don't be alone with other people' is not exactly radical advice. I've had plenty of managers who said things very similar to that, or acted in ways that seemed informed by advice like that (for instance, making a point of holding one-on-one meetings in rooms with glass doors or walls.) The proliferation of glass-walls in workplaces is probably more than just a in-vogue aesthetic. I think a lot of people see value in having third party witnesses when in potentially confrontational scenarios.
