Sexual harassment is the biggest business issue facing women in our industry today...
Sexual harassment keeps women out of leadership positions and power, prevents gender equality from ever happening and also prevents women from reaching out and accessing the power to become the leaders who actively welcome diversity and inclusion. Women cannot achieve equality in the workplace or in society as long as sexual harassment and assault persists.
There are many organizations that are working to protect women in the workplace. By speaking out you are not only protecting yourself, you are helping others find their voice to speak out.
