Don'T Be A Big Mouth In The Workplace.

"It's wise to keep secrets."

"It's about trust and how you handle confidential information, no matter how you find it," said Ian Gooden, chief executive of resource consulting.

This may have a big impact on your position in the company.

If you should not know these information, you should not spread the information. "

Management consultant Ross Taylor added: "this information may also be inaccurate.

For example, you may think you are excluded from an important meeting, but this conference is actually about discussing your promotion.

She said that sharing secrets with people and becoming the center of events is the natural desire of people.

"But you need to be mature, not like a child.

If you really want someone to say something, find someone outside your company who you trust.

Oliver James, a psychologist and author of office politics, says that it doesn't mean that you can't make use of this information without telling others about it.

"In fact, from a political point of view, if it affects a lot of people, including yourself, you should keep secrets as much as possible.

Now that you want to minimize the danger, if you tell everyone else, your advantage will disappear.

He added: "people who are really in the right position are people in the human resources department, so it is no harm to cultivate a few connections among these people.

You can make excuses, talk to the relevant HR colleagues, ask them about your long-term career development, observe carefully, and see if they will reveal anything.

In addition, he said, "you should also try to find people who have the right to decide on your job changes.

Aim at this person to ensure that you feel that you are making a useful contribution and can not be cut down. "

Taylor suggests that you should be very cautious: "people don't usually thank you for bad news.

In fact, they may be angry with you. "

She added that if the information is inaccurate or incomplete, and they make bad decisions accordingly, they may ask you to be responsible.

James said there are other factors to consider: "pay close attention to your interests and examine your motives for revealing the news to others.

Be careful that these messages do not harm themselves in turn.

If the person who shares information with you is a big mouth, then you may think it is not steady.

Should it be addressed to the boss? "Sometimes," said Gordon, "if the news is leaked and someone is looking for the culprit, then you tell the boss that you heard the news by accident, which means you are not involved in this matter."

In short, as Taylor said, "the best way is to be as mysterious as Sphinx."
