Ever had someone lean over your desk in a way that made you uncomfortable? Have you received an inappropriate email or text message from a colleague? Perhaps been faced with a power dynamic that made it feel unsafe to say no?

Sometimes we can make people uncomfortable without even realising it. In this workshop, we provide your staff with a better understanding of what types of behaviours constitute sexual harassment, and empower them with the affirmative consent skills to prevent this from happening in the workplace.

Learn to apply explicit communication tools and check for congruent body language to ensure everyone feels comfortable, or step in as a bystander when you notice someone doesn’t.

We’re experts

​

With combined educational backgrounds in Psychology, Education and Sexology, as well as years of experience running Let’s Talk About X - a social enterprise with the main goal of preventing gender-based violence - Mel and Eleonora are leading the way in teaching evidence-based, practical strategies to create a safer, more inclusive culture.

​

​

We focus on primary prevention and cultural shift

Our training supports employers and PCBUs in meeting your positive duty to eliminate workplace sex discrimination and harassment as well as other psychosocial hazards such as bullying, conflict and poor workplace relationships and interactions.

Our training is aligned with the holistic approach the Respect @ Work framework champions for, helping your organisation take a primary prevention approach that goes beyond policies and complaints-handling procedures. We recognise that gender inequality and power imbalances are a key driver for sexual harassment, and provide your staff and leaders with the understanding and tools to work towards a cultural shift at every level.

Our qualifications and experience in education mean that we know just how to support you in enacting an effective sexual harassment education strategy and framework that creates a cultural shift towards inclusion, respect and gender equality.

We consider your unique context

If we want to create a cultural shift, we need to understand the culture to begin with. At Let’s Talk About X, we know that every workplace is unique, and has its own culture. That’s why we consult with you to gain an understanding of your specific work environment - so that we can maximise impact by delivering training that best meets your staff where they’re at.

We also know we can’t speak for everyone, so we take an intersectional approach to our work, having consulted with people from a diverse group of backgrounds and life experiences in developing our training.

​

Our training is evidence-based and accessible

​

Our training is trauma-informed and based on international best practice as published by UN Women, adapted for Australian workplaces and incorporating findings from Respect @ Work.

​

Along with this, we believe that too much jargon can get in the way of meaningful change, so when we talk to your team, we’ll be personable, frank, clear and concise. As you know, in order to build a cultural shift we need to engage everyone, so while all our work is evidence-based, we won’t talk to you like we’re reading out a research paper.
