What just happened? Activision Blizzard announced this week that it’s setting up a „Workplace Responsibility Committee“ to try to fix the company’s reported problems with workplace harassment. It’s the latest in a series of responses to several lawsuits and investigations accusing many top employees of discrimination against female employees. All three game console manufacturers have expressed concern over the situation, and the CEO said his departure isn’t impossible. Activision Blizzard announced it appointed two independent directors—Dawn Ostroff and Reveta Bowers—to the new committee. The company is also looking for a third „diverse director“ to add to the board. The press release adds that CEO Bobby Kotick will provide frequent progress updates and that Activision will require management to develop performance indicators to show their progress.
