Description

In the wake of movements like #MeToo, many employees ask: "When it comes to appropriate conduct, are we being oversensitive, or have we finally found the courage to call out behaviour that was never okay?" This 60-minute awareness session provides a clear, practical roadmap for identifying sexual harassment in all its forms. We move past the obvious to focus on "grey-area" harassment: the subtle, often overlooked behaviours that cause the most harm to workplace culture. By defining the spectrum of physical, verbal, and indirect harassment, we provide your team with the literacy needed to recognise when a line has been crossed and the practical tools to intervene safely and effectively.

Outline

  • We begin by acknowledging the change in social standards. We explore how movements like #MeToo have shifted the conversation from "normalised behaviour" to an era of accountability and courage.

  • A comprehensive breakdown of what sexual harassment actually includes. We define the five core types: physical, verbal, non-verbal, direct, and indirect harassment.

  • We watch a high-production cinematic episode from our "The Line" series. This video anchors the session, illustrating how "grey-area" interactions can undermine safety and trust.

    Watch the sample video to the right.

  • We tackle the question: "Is grey area harassment really harmful?" We look at the psychological and professional impact of harassment and why "small" incidents often lead to significant cultural damage.

  • Research shows that the bystander is the most effective tool for interrupting harassment. We explore what an active bystander is and how to intervene in a way that is safe and constructive.

  • We wrap up with a Q&A engagement session with final reflections on personal accountability and the role everyone plays in maintaining a safe workplace.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Our virtual format is designed to scale; we've successfully hosted groups from 20 to 2,000.

  • No. Our approach is grounded and professional. We aren't here to shame; we are here to provide literacy and safety tools so that everyone can work in a respectful environment.

  • Absolutely. While the core frameworks of sexual harassment literacy are consistent, the session is flexible enough to be tailored to your organisation's specific language, internal policies, and current cultural challenges. We ensure the conversation feels like a natural extension of your existing team culture.

  • We are platform-agnostic (Zoom, Teams, etc.) and can use our meeting platform or yours.

  • To protect the psychological safety of our participants and encourage real engagement, we do not allow sessions to be recorded. This ensures that every conversation stays within the room, allowing your people to engage authentically without fear of being captured on camera.

  • Research consistently shows that when colleagues speak up, harassment stops. Empowering the bystander is the most effective way to change a culture because it moves the responsibility from the victim to the collective.

  • We offer two ways to measure the impact of your Awareness Session. Users scan a QR code that opens our WhatsApp bot on their devices for quick survey feedback. Or we can provide you with a pre-designed survey link to distribute via email (or other internal channel).

  • Yes, absolutely. We have a dedicated Masterclass specifically designed for this topic that shifts the focus toward practical tools, real-world scenarios, and concrete solutions
