Confronting Sexual Harassment As a network of more than 350 women leaders who use our power to help each other and advance the community, we feel it is our duty to strengthen the national and local conversation on sexual harassment by adding our voices. In early 2018, we partnered with TEMPO Milwaukee and distributed to our membership the survey they created on sexual harassment. 32% of members participated and we learned that the majority of respondents have experienced or witnessed sexual harassment at work. Survey Results Media Coverage Over half of surveyed Milwaukee businesswomen say they have experienced workplace harassment 54% of respondents from group of professional women say they've experience sexual harassment at work | Programs
