Saying you don't condone sexual harassment is not enough if you don't back it up with swift action. Harassment, assault, retaliation. Every employee is important and deserves a safe place to work.

Misconduct can be perpetrated by or against any gender. Don't allow gender biases to influence your view when you receive an allegation. Also, action speaks louder than words. Your policy only carries the worth of your action.

Your company has policies. Your company has values. What speech you allow or disallow is your choice, but it is important that you apply and enforce the policy equally. Disagreement does not always equal offensive just because someone says it is.

Let's talk about how Dark Horse Comics went from referring to Scott Allie's tendency to bite others as a joke to finally being forced to take appropriate disciplinary action. Why was he allowed to continue in his job for so long when his bad behavior was so well known in the industry?

Listen to Bryan tell his story about how his employer received an allegation that he had engaged in misconduct, how they conducted an investigation, and how they found that he not only did not engage in the alleged behavior, but that the allegations were made up. Unfortunately, when the investigation failed to implicate Bryan, they found another excuse to fire him, the fact he was without a permanent residence.

No matter how long you have been conducting investigations, you can still find ways to improve. Your experience is only as good as the training you received. You may sitting on a ticking time bomb of case files without even knowing it. In this episode I talk about my observations of common mistakes and failings after reviewing hundreds of cases. It's not just the other guy who needs this. You aren't as good as you think you are.
And if you feel yourself getting angry or defensive, you are in the right place.

Sometimes companies don't know what to do and don't have good policies in place when misconduct is occurring, so they choose to just make it go away. To protect my guest's anonymity, I will call him "Steve." Listen to Steve's story of being stalked and threatened by a coworker and being fired when he went to his supervisor for help. Here is his story and my take on what should have happened.

How much more effective would your team be if everyone knew and understood the roles of each team member? Does your manager know what you do? Do you understand why your manager makes specific demands? When everyone is trained in a silo, there is no clear communication or collaboration. If I were in charge, I would utilize a comprehensive training model.

No longer can leaders tell their employees to "trust us." Employees want transparency and are willing to move to an organization that is transparent. When it comes to misconduct, transparency and consistency build trust while acting as a check and balance on disciplinary decisions. The data backs me up.

Humans are complicated beings. We all do good things and bad things. Our public persona is often different than what we do in private. However, people often judge allegations of bad behavior through the lens of other non-related good behavior. You must take care to look at the actual relevant evidence, not whether a person is nice, hard working, or your friend. Our prisons are full of good people who did a bad thing.
