Had many direct reports, subordinates and equal ranks that were female, during my life in corporate America. over 20 years ago, when sexual harassment was the next big thing.
As a male, I followed the Billy Graham rule—any female in my office, and the door was never fully closed. My secretary was also instructed to check through the door every once in awhile.
I had four direct reports one rank below gunning for my job.
Worked for me.
Now they got Hom-Execu-Sluts, Lesbos icluded, so no one is safe at PC Corp of America!
