Tips on who to trust
This is a skill we all need to acquire. Haven’t we all had a coworker who gossiped a little too much? Or who got us into trouble? I’ve had coworkers I trusted deeply who turned out to be really disloyal, and work is a place where you spend a lot of your time, so it shouldn’t be a place full of conflict. Personally, I don’t think I’ve developed this skill to its full extent, but I think these workers who share their tips have. I was kinda confused because all of them are related to gossiping to some degree, and I think this is because engaging in gossip might be an attitude that shows we are not prone to being upfront about our thoughts and feedback and that we have some negative social characteristics. Of course, gossiping to some degree is normal, but a really ‘gossipy’ person can turn an entire group upside down. It’s always better to be upfront. So, whether you’re looking to acquire a few skills that help you learn who to trust in the office, or you want to chime in and share your own, this is the right place for you. My personal favourite was the only one that’s not related to gossip at all, but to respect across hierarchy; I think that one is deeply linked to a person’s integrity, and it’s a very important characteristic to look out for inside or outside the workplace.
