Within these pages James K. Beggan puts forward a novel approach to
understanding sexual harassment by high value superstars in the
workplace. The approach integrates ideas derived from evolutionary
theory, utility theory, sexual scripting theory and research on the
regulation of emotion. Besides providing a better understanding of
the phenomenon, the book aims to contribute to the development of
better techniques to prevent sexual harassment. Recently, credible
allegations of sexual misconduct against high profile figures have
dominated the news. Sexual harassment has become an important issue
for leaders and those who study leadership. The author presents a
new approach to understanding sexual harassment in the #MeToo era
that integrates research from a diverse range of areas typically
ignored by researchers. Ideas derived from this new approach are
used to propose more effective methods for the elimination of
sexual harassment in the workplace. The book also addresses how
efforts to prevent sexual harassment may interfere with the free
expression of sexuality and ultimately threaten the rights of the
individual. Academics and journalists interested in understanding
sexual harassment, including graduate students, and undergraduates
enrolled in upper division specialized courses in gender relations
will find this book to be innovative and informative.
