Safe at Work

Sexualized violence is omnipresent and takes place wherever people meet - including the workplace. Sexism, sexual harassment and abuse of power are rooted deeply, often difficult to recognize and even more difficult to eliminate.

Verena Arps-Roelle and Sebastian Arps want to change that.
In their book, which is based on a german case study, they show how you can create a culture free of sexualized violence in three steps - as an employee, colleague, manager and employer. This book offers valuable and experience-based insights into the complex topic and expands your knowledge of legal, corporate and social aspects. It equips you with tried-and-tested methods for setting clear boundaries and shows you how to use your strengths as a person or company to prevent and intervene in order to create a safe and respectful environment.

Therefore, sometimes we have to be a cactus: Learn how to use your spines to see, name and stop sexualized violence.

Sebastian Arps is an expert in (neuro)communication, sociologist and business psychologist. As the owner of Elementartraining, he supports companies and personalities in individual processes.

His work is characterized by a creative and constructive approach that creates sustainable change on a business and personal level. With his deep understanding of structures and needs, he critically questions existing processes to help companies and people recognize and break through entrenched patterns. Sebastian's work is based on the four elements of personality: perception, emotion, cognition and behavior. These elements, comparable to the four basic elements of life on earth, only work in conjunction with each other. They answer fundamental questions: What do I perceive? What do I feel? What do I recognize? How do I behave?
Sebastian has (further) developed many of the methods presented in this book for the act & protect® Academy and tested them in practice.

In 2024, together with Verena Arps-Roelle, Sebastian initiated the Together for Democracy alliance, with which he is committed to democratic values - also in the corporate context.
