What the #MeToo Meant

FIVE YEARS AFTER THE MOVEMENT WENT VIRAL, SILVIA CINQUE TAKES STOCK OF IT IN THE NINTH EPISODE OF THE THINK DIVERSE PODCAST

It has been five years since the #MeToo movement has become viral. In these years, the #MeToo has been urging society to confront issues of sexual harassment in the workplace, a type of sex-based and gender-based harassment, which goes from verbal remarks to physical and sexual assault. Though, it may still be unsure if the #MeToo has represented a step forward to gain enhanced freedom and equality at work, since there are many contrasting perspectives to consider.
 
In the ninth episode of the THINK DIVERSE podcast series, Silvia Cinque, Lecturer in Organization and HRM and Deputy Dean for Diversity and Inclusion at SDA Bocconi School of Management, tells host Catherine De Vries about the transformations occurring in the workplace in the era of the #MeToo movement.
 
 

 
According to some data from the US, sexual harassment has decreased, but at the same time, men have become more reluctant to engage with women at work, the so-called backlash effect. 
 
Even though the situation in organizations still hasn’t reached a radical change, it is clear that people are becoming more aware of the meaning of sexual harassment and how it occurs.
