Teaching about Gender Harassment: An Experiential Approach
Management Teaching Review, v5 n4 p311-323 Dec 2020
The prevalence of sexual harassment in the workplace has become more visible thanks to the #MeToo movement. For college students about to enter the workforce, it is important to understand and learn to address situations surrounding gender-based harassment. I present here a series of situations that provide students with the opportunity to discuss behaviors they might experience or witness at work. This experiential exercise focuses on providing students with tools to manage small but disturbing offenses that can, if nipped in the bud, lessen the likelihood of more significant workplace problems. The exercise complements organizational behavior, women in business, contemporary issues in management, business law, human resources, and other courses.
