If you’ve not had a chance to listen to part 1, we'd highly recommend checking out Workplace conflict (part 1): The balcony view. In part 1, Jennifer and Katie discuss the importance of taking a systemic view in highly charged and complex workplace harassment cases. In this episode, Jennifer walks us through the typical process and procedure of a workplace harassment case; explains the different stakeholders in play; discusses the importance of creating psychological safety; and looks ahead to the type of reform she would like to see happen.
