Every day we are learning about more harassing, bullying and abuse behavior on the part of people who have been in positions of power over their victims. Victims all over the country – indeed all over the world are yelling “#Metoo” and Not anymore.
This dynamic movement has opened the door for many other women, men and children to come forward to share their stories of abuse. That’s the plus side.
The flip side is that almost any untoward behavior can be interpreted as harassment and abuse behavior. Professional careers can be lost due to accusations alone.
We need context. We need perspective. We need a legal perspective. Complaints of tacky and inappropriate words should not rise to the level of demands for sexual favors, or actual sexual abuse. We need to look at context. We need to separate mildly offensive behavior from criminal behavior.
This webinar is designed to go beyond the basic training to prevent harassment offered through Illumeo and elsewhere. It will talk about some touchy and probably not exactly politically correct ideas in a desire to provide a full understanding of what is happening today and what can be – and should be – prevented in the future.
