Welcome to another episode of At the Table with Patrick Lynn Choney, where everything

we talk about is related to organizational health and the world of work.

I'm Pat Lynn Choney, your host, joined by the full crew today, Cody, Bo and Tracy.

How are we doing?

Better than Bo and Tracy.

Oh, good.

Very good.

We've got Matt in studio helping us stay on track and Karen here sharing wisdom with me.

Cody, what are we talking about today?

When gossip is good.

Right.

When gossip is good.

Now, real gossip is never good, of course.

But there's things that we do that some people would think is gossip, but it's actually good

and necessary and virtuous and we want to be clear about that because too often we think

we shouldn't gossip and we're not doing the right thing and it leaves the team, the

person we're dealing with and the whole situation worse for the where.

So that's what we're going to talk about today when you should do things that might feel

like gossip, but they really aren't and they're productive.

Hmm.

And Pat, I'm assuming when you describe that then you say, well gossip would be any time

you're talking about somebody behind their back and that might not be the case.
