Bullying. Harassment. Sexual abuse. We keep calling it a culture problem — and that framing is costing people their careers, their health, and sometimes their lives. This session strips away the euphemisms and calls workplace violence exactly what it is: a systemic failure with real victims and real consequences. Drawing on public health frameworks and organizational psychology, HR and People leaders will leave with a sharper lens for identifying violence in all its forms, the language to name it clearly, and evidence-based strategies to actually stop it — not manage it, not “address concerns,” but stop it. No more soft landings for hard harm.
