Gossip 01/13/2012
 Gossiping is one of the most destructive actions that anyone can engage in. If you have a problem with someone - tell him or her directly if at all possible. Don’t complain about them behind their back. Always talk about someone as though they were in the room. To do otherwise is destructive to both the person who is not present to defend their action and to the person who is being critical. Add Comment Everyone is busy during the holidays, and it sometimes causes tempers to flare in a way that they normally wouldn't. No matter how frustrated you get with anyone you work with, never (ever) yell at them. If you have made the mistake of yelling at a co-worker or someone you supervise, make sure to have a normalizing conversation as soon as possible, and be sure to apologize for your behavior. Then demonstrate your apology in action by never doing it again. | Also keep an eye on Anne Saile's Tips from the Top blog at the Times Union website!
