Harassment isn't about your intention. It's about your impact, explains Michael Kaufman.

- In the #MeToo era, many men feel they're walking on eggshells and can't say anything anymore.

- Companies must refocus their policies away from 1,000 page "don't do this" manuals and address the gray areas that are most confusing, like: Can you give a colleague a compliment?

- Workplace harassment training should focus on the principle that sexual harassment is about impact of your words or actions; it's not about your intention.

Michael Kaufman, PhD, is the co-founder of the White Ribbon Campaign, the largest effort in the world of men working to end violence against women.
