Welcome to our three-part episode covering the webinar series of the 2025 International Day Against Harassment and for Inclusion in the World of Work, an event organised by Rezalliance in partnership with FER Geneva, Narratives of Purpose, and Strukturelle.
This first episode delves into the intricate relationship between workplace harassment, mental health, and organisational culture.
The speakers, Dr. Makiko Kuramoto and Dr. Jennifer Fraser, engage in a profound exploration of how systemic issues within corporate environments contribute to the normalisation of bullying and harassment. They argue that such behaviours often symptomatic of deeper cultural flaws, including rigid hierarchies and a lack of accountability.
The discussion highlights the neurobiological consequences of harassment, stating that such knowledge is essential for fostering healthier workplaces. Both experts stress the importance of leadership in modeling appropriate behaviour and establishing a culture of safety, respect, and open communication, thereby not only preventing harassment but also enhancing overall organisational performance.
