If you can’t say it to their face, don’t say it behind their backs.
Speaking “in confidence” has lost a great deal of “confidence” in that being true these days.
With the ears and recording devices out there that are looking for you to…
slip something out for them to use against you…
Share something you shouldn’t…
Say something that could be taken the wrong way…
Or someone looking to get a sound byte that could bite you in the rear…
It is good to keep those elements in mind as you are talking, texting, emailing, posting or sharing anything and everything.
Think of it as preventative maintenance and crisis management to keep a crisis from happening.
