A couple easy solutions.
1. Hire a female exec to be the liason to handle all 1:1 w/ women.
2. Record everything to ensure there can be no reporting as long as you're truly not being a dick.
3. Bring a woman into the room, and be open that you're wanting to be a safe space for women, then have an anonymous 'suggestion' tool where they can give feedback on how you behaved, and have the same tool have a spot where people could single out others for 'improvement', and the message will ONLY be read by that individual so as not to incite fear of retaliation - but sometimes people say things off the cuff and aren't aware it offends others.
I'm on the 'spectrum' and filtering is sometimes hard for us. If someone says woah buddy that's offensive, I feel shitty for a day or two about it and I don't do it again. I appreciate when people bring things to my attention where I can change/become better - even if it feels uncomfortable for a bit.
