The #MeToo and #TimesUp have been extremely powerful movements galvanizing women from all walks of life to come out and share stories about them being harassed at work or personal space. It has created a positive, vibrant environment. Yet, this has not translated to real gains for women in the corporate space. Few places have seen new policies being introduced to tackle any such recurring issues. Corporate training programmes designed to sensitize men have hardly been held. For leaders to create a safe environment where such matters may be discussed out in the open, few steps need to be introduced. A system needs to be devised where leaders are held accountable if the improved measures do not take place. They must first themselves act as public change champions. Beyond the routine information dumps, leaders must go beyond to impart the necessary life skills.
