Welcome to the ninth episode of the Career Crowd Podcast.  Let us introduce you to the dynamic duo, Marie and Frances who are the founders of Speak Out Revolution. We had the pleasure of talking to them about the platform they have created for everyone to submit their experiences of harassment and bullying in the workplace. They are offering training to organisations to make a meaningful change in the workplace. Furthermore, the powerful data they are harnessing is highlighting a silent pandemic, which should be accounted for by responsible organisations. It's definitely something we don't think about in our careers. 

Our Career fear segment focuses on the Fear of speaking out, exploring why speaking out about harassment and bullying in the workplace is so difficult.  What resources can help you the listeners. Identifying who may be experiencing it or who can be an advocate for someone who is?  Let us know your thoughts!
