Compelled: Workplace Sexual Harassment, Backlash, Bullying and Gaslighting: A Memoir

By K Koslowsky-Jones

Compelled uniquely contributes to the current conversation about workplace sexual harassment, and discusses the backlash, bullying and gaslighting behaviours which often follow. Its theoretical, legal and historical overview provides context in understanding the complexity of this pervasive organizational problem.

Drawing on academic research and learned experience, the author provides a detailed account that is both personal and procedural, enabling readers to relate the facts, contexts and high-profile cases to her own experience of sexual harassment and decades long battle working within a toxic environment.

This book makes clear that each individual case of workplace sexual harassment and the associated fallout is part of a larger pattern of systemic inequality that exists on multiple levels, from companies and unions, to the legal system itself. Compelled gives voice to an experience many victims are too fearful to name, answering #MeToo's call to fight the stigma of speaking out.
