Work gossip: We’ve all heard it, and some of us have spread it -- whether that action took place around the water cooler, via text or through email.
There are mixed views about gossip: Some say that gossip is toxic, and I tend to agree. Others, such as Red Hat CEO Jim Whitehurst, actively encourage it.
But at my company, our definition of gossip is clear: “unproductive communication with someone who cannot help solve the problem at hand.” In short, this kind of talk pollutes a work environment.
Personally, I believe humans' tendency to gossip can be transformed into better communication all around. Here are some intentional steps leaders can take to flip office chattiness on its head and model the behavior they want their employees to emulate.

Before You Test Your System, Test Your AssumptionsTechWell
Do you find yourself discussing with your peers what you think the system you’re building should do? Do you argue over what the users want? Do discussions wind up in a heated debate? This result indicates that no shared understanding exists about the system. With a lack of shared understanding, it’s easy to fall into the trap of making assumptions about system functionality, who the users will be, and how to build the system. These assumptions introduce errors into the requirements and design—long before a single line of code is written. Creating a shared understanding among stakeholders, users, and teams reduces the chances of not building the right thing—as well as not building the thing right. Aaron Sanders describes the techniques of experimental design, story mapping, user research, prototyping, and user acceptance testing that he’s used to help teams build a shared understanding. Learn to test your assumptions as rigorously as you test the system itself.
People are tired of talking heads, being told what and how to do things. We have access to information, what we need is the opportunity to make sense of our experiences, to converse, to connect and to create together. In the experience economy, every time we meet face to face is a wonderful opportunity to be delighted by discovering something new for ourselves. If you are a Manager, a Trainer, Consultant, Event Manager - knowing how to design so that people experience creating and discovering new knowledge is imperative for engagement and innovation.

Many businesses survive but never reach a position where they thrive. What follows are nine tips you can use to help your business go from a survivor to a thriver.
In an increasingly virtualized world, many data points suggest that organizations are not only in need of skills training but also relational collaboration. What can we do about it? How can we create continuing change and growth in the workplace — the kind that translates to bottom-line impact? New York Times best-selling author Keith Ferrazzi has met with more than 50 chief learning officers and heads of HR who have offered insight and advice for bringing innovation to life.

• Examples of virtual and technology-enabled learning that succeed in engaging learners and fostering collaboration.
• New methods of segmentation and the implications for resource allocation.
• Measurement and systems to support the new learning model.

What Training for a Half-Marathon Taught me About PersistenceAviva Leebow Wolmer
After signing up, I learned that the SeaWheeze is one of the most beautiful and pleasant half-marathons imaginable. It takes place mostly along the seawall in Vancouver, Canada where breathtaking scenery, salty ocean air and boundless positivity steal the show. The entire experience, sponsored by Lululemon, is more than just a run. It’s an event that focuses on mindfulness and wellness, and a celebration all rolled into one. Was it going to be easy? Not at all. But I was convinced it would be worth it, and as it turned out I was right.
Would you like your team to provide you ideas for improvement on a regular basis? Would you like to see them contribute more in general? If you answered ‘yes’ to either question, you might be forgetting the value of your team members, the frontline associates. From the plant to the boardroom, every person can provide you perspectives that propel your organization to success.

5. Gossip feels like fun because it’s juicy and secretive. Team members get
excited and share it quickly. But why not consider the following notion:
Leaders can redirect the passionate feelings gossip generates to improve
everyday office communication on important subjects.
1. THE ART OF
REDIRECTION
Imagine treating pertinent work news with the same excitement. It
would spread important information quickly and with enthusiasm. Have
an update on a project? This is a great opportunity to put your skills into
action. Channel that zeal, and let others know!
6. The important differentiator
is that communicating
exciting, relevant topics in
the office leads to idea
generation and
productivity. If you can
apply gossip’s fervent
energy to a new type of
message, your own
communication skills will
improve radically and can
help advance the entire
team.
7. Gossiping team members should use their conversation to better
communicate their problems to other teammates or with
management. The workplace simply isn't the right environment
for vague, wholesale venting.
2. HONESTY FIRST

12. 4. FOCUS
ON THE
POSITIVE.
Most important, perhaps, is
reversing our primary focus on
problems in the first place. Gossip
is damaging because it breeds
negativity. Spreading good news
and laudable attainments can be a
great alternative. Management
should lead by example in this
regard, and it's easy to start. Make
it a habit to recognize and share
accomplishments made by
associates on all levels.
13. Leaders should be clear
about which types of
communication are
acceptable. Warmly
encourage this positive
sharing, drawing out the
elements that make gossip
fun and spinning them
into celebrations of effort.
It could take your team to
the next level.
14. 5. BECOME A COMMUNICATION
MASTER.
These tenets guide
communication within
our company:
15. Say what you mean. Be
clear and make direct
requests.
19. ALTOGETHER, THESE
PRINCIPLES MAKE FOR MORE
OPEN, BENEFICIAL AND
ENERGETIC COMMUNICATION
