Stop the office gossip!

Stop the office gossip!

Gossip, whether whispered at desks, or shared loudly over drinks, is poison to the organization. Perhaps it feels ok because "what we're saying is true." Well... of course it's true - because otherwise what you're engaging in is slander. That's why I say, Stop the...
