International Women’s Day 2020: An Investment in Training is an Investment in Your People

International Women’s Day 2020 is this weekend, Sunday, March 8th! Now, two years after the #MeToo movement and the ripple effect of “that tweet,” we look at the cultural shifts emerging in workplaces across the globe.

Why should a culture of complicity grow until something terrible enough happens to stop it? Are high-profile, celebrity stories making it easier or more difficult for us to see the difference between right and wrong? In ideal world, calling out unacceptable behaviour would be a straightforward decision. But the reality is, this is a very complex decision. Existing working relationships can cloud judgement, values can misalign, and training might not be delivered consistently or clearly enough to create awareness around workplace harassment.
