A study by the Harvard Business Review states that Sexual Harassment programs have backfired. Since the 1970's most US organizations have sought to address sexual harassment (basically to protect their "you-know-what's" from being sued because of it). They implemented mandatory training programs, also known as forbidden behavior training along with formal grievance procedures which made all the organizations and executives feel that they were taking care of the problem. But yet all these decades later, Sexual Harassment is still with us, as the "Me Too" movement brought to light.

Today, some 40% of women and 16% of men say they have been sexually harassed at work...a number that remarkably has not changed since the 1980's! But, given how widespread grievance procedures and forbidden behavior training have become, why are the numbers still so high?

For insight on this issue, I brought the fabulous and always entertaining USA Today best-selling author and Employment attorney, Jeanette Escuerdo into the studio. You will be amazed to hear her stories and the surprising Sexual Discrimination issue that is happening to women RIGHT NOW all because of Covid!!

I get   messages all the time from people asking me how to get their personal information off the internet. I always tell them, it's really tough to put toothpaste back in the tube. Once your information is out there, it's out there. Your personal information is available to anyone with an internet connection.

This information includes your home address, phone numbers, names of relatives, and more.

If you Google your name and the city you live in, you will see dozens of people-search sites exposing your private information. This information can be used by stalkers, criminals, and identity thieves. This is dangerous, BUT you can do something about it. You can remove yourself from these sites and take your privacy back.

Pete James, former law enforcement officer and founder of OfficerPrivacy.com will discuss how you can protect your personal information.
