Navigating Issues At Work, From Relationships To Harassment
It seems that each week, a new accusation of inappropriate-- and sometimes criminal--workplace behavior comes to light. This year, it started with Susan Fowler's post about her time at Uber. Then, accusations were made in the media industry against Harvey Weinstein, Louis C.K., and more. Our round table weighs in on the issue.
It seems no industry is free of these workplace issues. So how can companies prepare for, and handle, these scenarios?
