This is an excellent course to get your employees to help build a respectful workplace. It gives them courses of action to intervene in situations that management may not observe. I really liked the beginning set-up comparing addressing workplace harassment to an employee choking so that employees buy in to the idea that they should step up and say something. I also liked the point that was emphasized throughout the course that offenders are not villians and that you should have a conversation, not a confrontation to change the situation. A very innovative approach to encouraging employees to help maintain a respectful workplace rather than just letting them be bystanders and making management responsible for all employee relations.

I found this to be an excellent course. I liked the way the issue was presented in order to gain the attention of all who view. I also think that making this an issue that everyone can address when noticed the first time; helps HR by laying some of the responsibility at the feet of other supervisors and peers.

I liked that this course provided some practical steps that bystanders can take in creating a healthy workplace environment. I was also impressed by the practical examples of working through which interventions should be used.
